#cool-old-term

##Description cool-old-term is a terminal emulator which tries to mimic the look and feel of the old cathode tube screens. It has been designed to be eye-candy, customizable, and reasonably lightweight.

It now uses the Konsole engine which is powerful and mature.

This terminal emulator requires Qt 5.2 or higher to run.

yaourt -S aur/cool-old-term-git

##Build instructions

##Dependencies Make sure to install these first.


Ubuntu 14.04

sudo apt-get install build-essential qmlscene qt5-qmake qt5-default qtdeclarative5-dev qtdeclarative5-controls-plugin qtdeclarative5-qtquick2-plugin libqt5qml-graphicaleffects qtdeclarative5-dialogs-plugin qtdeclarative5-localstorage-plugin qtdeclarative5-window-plugin

Debian Jessie

sudo apt-get install build-essential qmlscene qt5-qmake qt5-default qtdeclarative5-dev qml-module-qtquick-controls qml-module-qtgraphicaleffects qml-module-qtquick-dialogs qml-module-qtquick-localstorage qml-module-qtquick-window2

Fedora This command should install the known fedora dependencies:

sudo yum -y install qt5-qtbase qt5-qtbase-devel qt5-qtdeclarative qt5-qtdeclarative-devel qt5-qtgraphicaleffects qt5-qtquickcontrols

or:

sudo dnf -y install qt5-qtbase qt5-qtbase-devel qt5-qtdeclarative qt5-qtdeclarative-devel qt5-qtgraphicaleffects qt5-qtquickcontrols

Arch Linux

sudo pacman -S qt5-base qt5-declarative qt5-quickcontrols qt5-graphicaleffects

openSUSE

Add repository with latest Qt 5 (this is only needed on openSUSE 13.1, Factory already has it):

sudo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Qt5/openSUSE_13.1/ KDE:Qt5

Install dependencies:

sudo zypper install libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-qtdeclarative-devel libqt5-qtquickcontrols libqt5-qtgraphicaleffects

Anyone else

Install Qt directly from here http://qt-project.org/downloads . Once done export them in you path (replace "/opt/Qt5.3.1/5.3/gcc_64/bin" with your correct folder):

export PATH=/opt/Qt5.3.1/5.3/gcc_64/bin/:$PATH

###Compile Once you installed all dependencies (Qt is installed and in your path) you need to compile and run the application:

# Get it from GitHub
git clone https://github.com/Swordifish90/cool-old-term.git

# Build it
cd cool-old-term
cd konsole-qml-plugin

# Compile (Fedora and OpenSUSE user should use qmake-qt5 instead of qmake)
qmake && make && make install

cd ..

# Have fun!
./cool-old-term
