Software George has installed for you
Miscellaneous collection of programs and tools that I have installed and occasionally update. I do this less than I used to because I spend most of my time on my OSX box these days.
In alphabetical order:
- audacity: Free audio editor and recorder
- autoconf: GNU Project configurator
- automake: GNU Project makefile maker
- cadaver: Command-line WebDAV client
- cinelerra: Movie studio in a Linux box
- cvs: Concurrent Versions System
- dviselect: Extract pages from DVI files
- Firefox: Mozilla Project web browser
- gcc: GNU Project compiler collection
- gtar: GNU Project archiving utility
- Mozilla: Mozilla Project integrated suite
- SoX: Universal sound sample translator
- Sunbird: Mozilla Project calendar app
- Thunderbird: Mozilla Project mail client
To use all these programs in place of the default installed versions, add
/u/ferguson/bin-linux to the start of your
PATH (see
SettingUnixSearchPath for details).
To use only some of the programs, create
$HOME/bin and add it to your
PATH. Then create a symlink from there to the program(s) you want in
/u/ferguson/bin-linux.
To get the manpages (if there are any), add
/u/ferguson/man to your
MANPATH. I also try to link relevant Info files from
/u/ferguson/info if you care.
If you just have to see under the hood, everything is installed in
/u/ferguson/sw, with links to relevant parts in the
bin-linux and
man directories.
