Tinycore 64bit TCZ for Eterm


Longer Title
#############
These are links to two Tinycore 64 bit packages compiled on 8.x....Eterm and a new dependency libast.

Eterm is a light terminal smaller in download size relative to lxterminal etc.

I am not a member of that other forum any more so offer downstream maintainer issues here. I am not a real coder and have no involvement with the upstream development. If you want to become the 64 or 32 maintainer reply here. And I won't respond to any bug report at that other forum, only here.

First the obligatory screen shot
###############################
http://imgur.com/a/3d69o

^ shows that both the terminal and its doc has been loaded and upon opening the terminal, I clicked the ? to causes the man page to open in an independent terminal. I have also hovered on the wbar icon.

2) I have attempted to share the binaries, the source and the build scripts in a shareable dropbox folder here
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/xt942owm1...MG3P5PMja?dl=0

The smallest download you will need
the TCZ for Eterm and libast,
their respective dep files and md5 files

I suggest you also download the doc TCZ, its dep and md5 files for Eterm so help is available and they only a small download.

Optionally you can download the info files.

3) Alternatively I have tarballed all files into their own tarball as showing here

Eterm.tar.gz size 1.4 MB
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8z...ew?usp=sharing

libast.tar.gz size 761 kB
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8z...ew?usp=sharing

4) I have submitted the 64 bit TCZs for submission approval but they may be refused.

trivia
######
libast stands for library of Assorted Spiffy Things but the source showing in libast/src is named libast which is why I named the downstream pkg in lower case.

good luck

As suspected enough time has elapsed to say submission has failed, but that is OK as they prolly don't want an outsider being the maintainer.
I needed the space for dropbox so dropbox packages removed but google drive is still OK


2) I am too lazy to update the build scripts but submitqc changes owner from root to tc and the actual command needed to be
submitqc --libs

cheers
