Factor is a programming language that is designed to be fast, efficient, and easy-to-use. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps for installing Factor on NetBSD.
Before we start with the installation of Factor, we need to install the required dependencies. We can do this by executing the following command:
sudo pkgin -y install gcc git gmake libjpeg-turbo libpng
To download Factor, we need to clone the Git repository of Factor by running the following command:
cd ~/Downloads/
git clone https://github.com/factor/factor
We can now move to the directory where we have cloned the Factor's Git repository and start building it by using the following command:
cd factor
make
Once this command finishes executing, the Factor binary will be created inside the directory.
We can now move to the Factor directory, and install it by executing the following command:
sudo make install
To verify that Factor has been successfully installed, we can run the following command:
factor
If the installation was successful, we should see the Factor's prompt.
In conclusion, we have successfully installed Factor on NetBSD by installing dependencies, cloning the Git repository, building, installing and verifying the installation. We hope this tutorial has been helpful. Happy coding!
