For example, the short-cut to copy the current selection is Control-C,\nand to paste the previously copied text the short-cut Control-V can be used.\nAs another example, the File menu can be accessed by pressing Meta-F.\n\n![Tilde screenshot](https://os.ghalkes.nl/tilde/tilde-screenshot.png)\n\nFor more information, see [the homepage](https://os.ghalkes.nl/tilde)\n\n## Installing Tilde\n\nThe easiest way to install Tilde is by using the repositories from the Tilde\nhomepage [download section](https://os.ghalkes.nl/tilde/download.html). If there\nare no binary packages provided for your distribution or hardware, you can still\nbuild Tilde from the official releases provided there. Be aware that Tilde\ndepends on several support libraries, which are also provided through the\nTilde homepage.\n\nBuilding from the official release is recommended over attempting to build from\nthe git repositories for installing Tilde. Only for development of Tilde should\nthe git repositories be used.\n\n## Getting help\n\nThere are several ways to get help, should you have problems using, installing\nor building Tilde:\n\n* For online support, try the #tilde IRC channel on freenode\n  ([webchat](http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=tilde)).\n* Alternatively, questions, discussions etc. can be posted on the mailing list\n  tilde-text-editor \u0026lt;at\u0026gt; googlegroups.com.\n* For bug reports or feature suggestions, please file a bug in the github\n  [bugtracker](https://github.com/gphalkes/tilde/issues).\n\n## Developing Tilde\n\nTo help developing Tilde, you will need to build Tilde from the git\nrepositories. The repositories assume that all parts of Tilde, i.e. Tilde\nitself and its support libraries, are built from the git repositories. Please\nfollow the steps below to build Tilde from the git repositories:\n\n1. Install the dependencies of Tilde from the system libraries. On a typical\n   Debian/Ubuntu system this would include (packages for OpenSUSE and Fedora\n   have similar names):\n   * flex\n   * gettext\n   * libacl1-dev\n   * libattr1-dev\n   * libgpm-dev\n   * libncurses5-dev\n   * libpcre2-dev\n   * libtool-bin\n   * libunistring-dev\n   * libxcb1-dev and/or libx11-dev\n   * pkg-config\n   * LLnextgen (available [here](https://os.ghalkes.nl/LLnextgen/download.html))\n   * clang (unless building using COMPILER=gcc)\n2. Clone the repositories:\n```bash\nfor i in makesys transcript t3shared t3window t3widget t3key t3config t3highlight tilde ; do\n    git clone https://github.com/gphalkes/$i.git\ndone\n```\n3. Build all packages: `./t3shared/doall --skip-non-source --stop-on-error make -C src`\n\nOnce the build is complete, `tilde/src/.objects/edit` is the newly compiled\ntilde. If the [termdebug](https://os.ghalkes.nl/termdebug.html) suite of tools\nis installed, then `tilde/src/tedit` can be used to run the editor while\nrecording the input and output for debugging purposes.\n\n## Other ways to contribute\n\n* Answer questions on the IRC channel (see the [Getting help](#getting-help)\n  section).\n* Creating and maintaining packages for different distributions.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgphalkes%2Ftilde","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fgphalkes%2Ftilde","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgphalkes%2Ftilde/lists"}
