Guest mtf169 Posted November 21, 2002 Report Share Posted November 21, 2002 I've been trying to install Pine/Pico but haven't had any luck even though I'm following the build directions. Has anyone had any luck building Pico for Mandrake? Basically, I'm trying to get a good text editor I can use through telnet. I'm still new to linux so any help would be great.

DragonMage Posted November 21, 2002 Report Share Posted November 21, 2002 If you just want a pico-like text editor, why don't you just use nano? There are some mandrake rpms for nano somewhere like ftp://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linu...9-1mdk.i586.rpm If you are deadset on getting pine just download it from plf mirrors like this one. http://ftp.club-internet.fr/pub/linux/plf/...4-4plf.i586.rpm You do know how to install rpm files, don't you? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mtf169 Posted November 21, 2002 Report Share Posted November 21, 2002 Yeah, I know how to install rpms :) I was just doing something wrong with building pine. I'll give nano a shot. Thanks a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mtf169 Posted November 21, 2002 Report Share Posted November 21, 2002 Nano was perfect! Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
