Dear all,
I want to install TeXmacs on my Nokia N900 phone. The phones processor
and memory are powerful enough so that they should be able to run a
very decent TeXmacs. The N900's operating system is Maemo 5 which is a
Linux distribution derived from Debian (http://maemo.org)
I tried to install TeXmacs according to the directions on the TeXmacs
homepage: Download > Binaries
gunzip -c TeXmacs-[version]-[your system].tar.gz | tar xvf -
export TEXMACS_PATH=[installation directory]
export PATH=$TEXMACS_PATH/bin:$PATH
This works OK. But when I type
texmacs &
I get errors like
....texmacs.bin: line 1: syntax error:"(" unexpected
On my Ubuntu PC the same procedure runs fine.
Could this be a shell problem? The X Terminal of the N900 is a BusyBox
v1.10.2 which seems to be an "sh"-shell. The PC has a full bash shell.
Also I installed the little Debian distribution "Easy Debian"
(http://wiki.maemo.org/Easy_Debian) and got similar results. Easy
Debian also has an "sh"-shell.
I would appreciate any comments and suggestions.
I'm guessing - but I wonder if the binary you downloaded suits the
architecture/processor on your phone; and that the executable form was
not recognized so the binary was passed to the shell to run - which
failed as it is not a shell script.
Did you consider that you might need to compile for your phone? (perhaps
using easy debian on your phone as the compile environment)
