TextMate is a popular code editor that is compatible with various operating systems, including OpenBSD. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install TextMate on OpenBSD.
Before installing TextMate on OpenBSD, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
To install TextMate on OpenBSD, we need to install some dependencies first. Open the terminal and type the following command:
$ doas pkg_add node
This command will install Node.js, which is required to build TextMate.
To download TextMate on OpenBSD, open the terminal and run the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/textmate/textmate.git
This command will download the TextMate source code from the official repository.
Once the TextMate source code is downloaded, navigate to the directory using the following command:
$ cd textmate
Next, run the following command to build TextMate:
$ rake build
This command will build TextMate using the dependencies that were installed earlier.
After the build process is complete, run the following command to install TextMate:
$ sudo rake install
This command will install TextMate on your OpenBSD system.
To verify that TextMate is installed on your OpenBSD system, run the following command:
$ textmate
This command will launch the TextMate editor. You can also check the version of TextMate by running the following command:
$ textmate -v
In this tutorial, we learned how to install TextMate on OpenBSD by installing dependencies, downloading the source code, building the code, and finally installing TextMate on our system. With TextMate installed on OpenBSD, you can now start coding with ease.
