![]() ![]() After the operation, additional 332.8 MiB will be used.Ĭontinue? (y): The following NEW package is going to be installed: īuilding repository 'Visual Studio Codium' cache. ![]() Retrieving repository 'Visual Studio Codium' metadata. Just as you would experience in running zypper in the terminal, you will see the refreshing of your repositories as the software is prepared for installation. Pressing Y will begin the installation process. Then I was asked: Do you want to install VS Codium from paulcarroty_vscodium repository? (Y/n) It worked out as simply as this: sudo opi vscodium Some of those being to install syncterm, NsCDE, and vscodium I have used OPI to install a few things quite nicely. This can be used to install multimedia codecs as well by simply typing sudo opi codecs although, I can’t exactly vouch for that at this time but I am told it works smashingly well. Some examples could be: sublime, vscode, zoom, even teamviewer. You type in “opi” and whatever it is you want to install. The use of this is so simple and straight forward there is not a whole lot to say here. Once installed, there is not much more you need to do to get going with it. Within the terminal run this: sudo zypper install opiĪlternatively, if you really want to install it the graphical way which I don’t understand why because it is a terminal program, use the point-and-click, graphical installation method. There is a fantastic documentation on the openSUSE wiki that spells it all out clearly and really renders this entire article kind of useless but my excitement over its use compels me to continue with writing this blathering. It probably won’t change my procedures for all the bits of software I install but it sure will make short work of future software searches. This is a tool that I now use to quickly search and install the software I need to get my computer to do the things I want it to do. What this means is, the multi-step process of adding repositories and installing the desired software can be greatly simplified, at least, from a user perspective.īottom Line Up Front: OPI is absolutely fantastic and makes short work of installing software available through the Open Build Service. Setting Syncterm up for LORD RIP support isn't easy, unfortunately.A project within openSUSE that I think is absolutely fantastic is called the “openSUSE Package Installer.” This allows you to install packages from various third party vendors such as the “Packman” repository or other “community repositories” of the openSUSE Build Service. Syncterm 1.2a (nightly build) offers experimental RIP support that works quite well. This client has a preconfigured address book and is preloaded with LORD RIP capabilities! Simply download the ZIP file, unzip to a desired location and launch RIPterm. RIPterm 1.54 has a convenient download option. That means any RIP client will work, including RIPTerm 1.54. The Realm of Serion is one of the few BBSes in the world with RIP graphics compatible with RIPscrip 1.0. The RIP graphics on this BBS have been developed and tested against: RIPTerm 1.54 for DOS, RIPtel 3.1 for Windows and Syncterm 1.2a (nightly build) Though RIP is somewhat limited in its functionality, it is able to function well enough for BBS menus. As RIP became available to BBSes in the 90's, the Internet became much more popular, ultimately causing RIP to be rarely adopted among BBSes and development of RIPscrip to cease. RIP was designed to enhance BBSes and other applications using a vector drawn UI. RIP or RIPscrip (Remote Imaging Protocol) is a system designed for sending vector graphics and UI elements over low bandwidth connections created by TeleGrafix Communications.
