Be Software

Disclaimer: I am not the author of the following apps. I only compiled and packaged them for BeOS x86 for people who don't want (or do not know how) to deal with compilation stuff! CDR-TOOLS 1.8 This package includes two command-line utilities used to burn CDs with BeOS. This is a x86 binary port for two well-known programs: cdrecord 1.8 mkhybrid 0.12b5.4   Mkybrid is used to create an ISO9660 image from a directory; cdrecord is the CD burning software. Installation The zip file contains a SoftwareValet package. Double-click on it to launch the install process. Files will be installed in /boot/home/config (approx. 800 Kb): /boot/home/config/bin: the binaries (7 files) /boot/home/config/man/man1: the two man pages (2 files) /boot/home/config/CDR tools documentation: additionnal docs Download Here is the zipped package: CDR tools 1.8  (330 Kb, 2000/02/06)   You can also download the sources: cdrecord 1.8 mkhydrid 1.12b5.4 Links Main sites: the cdrecord main site the mkhybrid primary ftp site   Additionnal info and software: CD Authoring with BeOS: "BeOS in focus" BeNews article WriteCD: a set of scripts by Zach Dykstra that simplifie the use of CDR Tools. Highly recommanded! Step-by-step guide (in french) VIM 5.6 Vim is an almost compatible version of the UNIX editor Vi. Many new features have been added: multi level undo, syntax highlighting, command line history, on-line help, filename completion, block operations, etc. There is also a Graphical User Interface (GUI) available. Installation The zip file contains a SoftwareValet package. Vim was configurated to use /boot/home/config directory. The following directories will be used: /boot/home/config/bin: vim binaries /boot/home/config/man/man1: vim man pages (not in "minimal install") /boot/home/config/share/vim/vim5.6: realtime support files /boot/home/: two sample config files and the changelog file (not in "minimal install")   Don't forget to add /boot/home/config/bin to your PATH environment variable.   If you choose "Standard Install", SoftwareValet will install two sample files in /boot/home. You have to rename these files if you want vim to use them. Just remove " (sample)" from their names. Exact names should be: /boot/home/.vimrc /boot/home/.gvimrc   Upgrading info: if you're upgrading from Vim 5.5 or 5.6a to 5.6, don't forget to delete vim5.5 or vim5.6a folder in /home/config/share/vim as it will not be used by Vim 5.6.
