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:
- autoconf: GNU Project configurator
- automake: GNU Project makefile maker
- Firefox: Mozilla Project web browser
- 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.
