Ease of use on ubuntu
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The sole reason for these instructions is to make it possible to run
|
||||
cmdtypist from any directory on the command line. For this reason, it is not
|
||||
an enquiry, it is optional.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can use cmdtypist without running the ./install.sh script.
|
||||
You will need to navigate to the cmdtypist program directory each time you want to run
|
||||
cmdtypist. install.sh helps you run it from any directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Run cmdtypist from any directory
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Open a terminal and navigate to the directory containing cmdtypist and all
|
||||
it's files.
|
||||
-In the ease use directory, run the command
|
||||
|
||||
./install.sh
|
||||
to a create symbolic link to cmdtypist. Enter password to complete process.
|
||||
|
||||
RUNNING:
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
If you successfully executed the install.sh script, then you can run cmdtypist
|
||||
using the command
|
||||
|
||||
begin; cmdtypist argument1 argument2 argument3
|
||||
|
||||
where argument is a valid cmdtypist argument, to know all valid arguments run
|
||||
the cmdtypist help command or consult the help file which comes with the
|
||||
program.
|
||||
|
||||
The above instructions have been tested on ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the begin command must be followed by a semicon as shown above.
|
||||
begin helps you navigate to cmdtypist directory. Alternative, you can first
|
||||
run begin to get into cmdtypist direcoty and then run cmdtypist.
|
||||
|
||||
If running cmdtypist produces a "Fatal error: some files are missing error"
|
||||
then you probably did not run with begin; or some files have been deleted or
|
||||
cannot be found.
