Note:

This is an alpha version of terminal. It is a dumb terminal. You can not run full screen apps yet. There is no esc key. the SYM key is the control key. To scroll the screen, flick the screen. (Hint, it's a Pre app.)

Installation

You need to be logged in as root with a writeable filesystem. Instructions for both those things can be found elsewhere on this wiki.

<source lang="text"> mkdir -p /var/etc/ipkg/ ln -s /etc/ipkg/arch.conf /var/etc/ipkg/ echo "src/gz all http://ipkg.preware.org/feeds/preware/all" > /var/etc/ipkg/preware.conf </source>

If you are on the Pre, type:

<source lang="text"> echo "src/gz armv7 http://ipkg.preware.org/feeds/preware/armv7" >> /var/etc/ipkg/preware.conf </source>

If you are on the Emulator, type:

<source lang="text"> echo "src/gz i686 http://ipkg.preware.org/feeds/preware/i686" >> /var/etc/ipkg/preware.conf </source>

Then type:

<source lang="text"> /usr/bin/ipkg -o /var update /usr/bin/ipkg -o /var install x-webosinternals-termplugin ln -s /var/usr/lib/BrowserPlugins/termplugin.so /usr/lib/BrowserPlugins/ /usr/bin/ipkg -o /var install org.webosinternals.terminal </source>

Then reboot.

Removal

You need to be logged in as root with a writeable filesystem. Instructions for both those things can be found elsewhere on this wiki.

<source lang="text"> rm /usr/lib/BrowserPlugins/termplugin.so /usr/bin/ipkg -o /var remove org.webosinternals.terminal /usr/bin/ipkg -o /var remove x-webosinternals-termplugin rm /var/etc/ipkg/preware.conf </source>

Then reboot.
