#Syncterm download install
This can be done with the following command: make SRC_ROOT=/home/ YOURUSERNAME/syncterm-20200309/srcĪfter this completes, build the software and install it: sudo make install We now want to change in to a subdirectory – that contains the source – of the archive we just extracted: cd syncterm-20200309/src/synctermīefore we can build syncTERM, we have to tell the compiler where the source is located. Once this is completed, change in to your home directory and then download the source code for syncTERM: cd ~ & wget Īfter the sourcecode downloads, extract the code from the archive: tar -zxvf syncterm-src.tgz Building SyncTERMįirst of all open Terminal – we’ll start by installing the dependencies that are required during the build process: sudo apt install build-essential libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev This isn’t anywhere near as daunting as it sounds.
Two Bit History‘s post mentions that you will be required to build SyncTERM from the source code. But, when I read the blog post: Bulletin Board Systems: The VICE Expos é on I was excited to learn that the BBS is alive and well, and anyone can “dial in” and have the experience of years gone by. (Un)fortunately I am too young that I missed the heyday of the BBS. Surviving BBSes can be accessed via Telnet or by using a program such as SyncTerm. BBSes can be seen as the precursor to the internet as we know it – back from a time where you would dial in to the server that you wished to view.
SyncTERM is a Bulletin board system (BBS) terminal program.
