Hi,
If you're using Archlinux (which I recommend) there currently isn't a package for PythonCard, but if you want to install it (not quite sure all the file locations are correct, as I've only started to experiment with it, and it doesn't install menu items yet), here's a PKGBUILD which you can use - download it and use it as follows:
As a normal user
Code:
mkdir ~/pythoncardbuild
cp PKGBUILD ~/pythoncardbuild
cd ~/pythoncardbuild
makepkg
Then as root
Code:
pacman -A /home/username/pythoncardbuild/pythoncard-0.8.1-1.pkg.tar.gz
To run codeEditor simply type codeEditor in a terminal window as a normal user.
Here is the PKGBUILD
Code:
