Rustpad is a free and open-source collaborative text and code editor that can be installed on NetBSD. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to install Rustpad on NetBSD:
Before installing Rustpad, you need to make sure you have the required dependencies installed on your NetBSD system. To do this, open the terminal and enter the following command:
sudo pkgin install gcc g++ cmake ninja pkg-config libgtk-3-dev libssl-dev
This command will install the necessary packages for Rustpad to run on your system.
Once you have installed the dependencies, you need to clone the Rustpad repository from GitHub. To do this, enter the following command in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/rustpad/rustpad.git
This will clone the Rustpad repository to your local machine.
Now that you have the Rustpad repository on your machine, you need to navigate to the rustpad
directory and build the application. To do this, enter the following commands in the terminal:
cd rustpad
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -GNinja
ninja
This will build Rustpad on your NetBSD system.
After the build process is complete, you can start Rustpad by entering the following command in the terminal:
./rustpad
This will launch Rustpad on your NetBSD system.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Rustpad on your NetBSD system! You can now use Rustpad as a collaborative text and code editor.
