You can now use https://get.pmmp.io! Code: curl -sL https://get.pmmp.io | bash -s - wget -q -O - https://get.pmmp.io | bash -s - We still need to update the PHP binaries, stay tuned! PHP Binaries - 7.0.13 Linux x64 macOS x64 Windows x64 Windows x86
Working on Windows using Cygwin Well, I think so anyways... Edit: Oh, no, my mistake, wget doesn't work with -0
That works great on Linux, and probably on Sierra, but unfortunately on OSX <= 10.11 cURL fails with apparently insoluble SSL errors, and wget isn't installed by default. The best solution to use this method on El Capitan and below seems to be to install XCode... have a cup of tea... or 10, install brew (tea is the answer to everything), $ brew install wget (no such thing as too much tea), and then finally run the wget command above. After a short while you'll be prompted to run ./start.sh, and you can finally relax with a nice cup of tea.
Just pointing out that you typed 0 (zero) and not O (the letter) ... did you do that on the actual command line?
Oh, oops, I thought it was a '-0 ' *facepalm* Thanks! When you say actual command line, do you mean cmd? Or like the Cygwin terminal. wget and curl are new to me Edit: Cygwin terminal doesn't do anything when I do the zero(I mean o) cmd just says that it is not recognised, tried to get latest PowerShell 3.0 CTP, isn't applicable to my computer. Great
For command line stuff, I almost always copy & paste. For npm I just type it tho. Edit: I changed now to npm. I'm not sure if I'm enjoying the Gboard (Google Keyboard)
I do write a lot of "bash" scripts, for the installer I would imagine we need a scripting language that is more portable. (Bash can run on windows but requires a large runtime to go with it, the same with a lot of scripting languages). My personal favorites for this type of scenarios is TCL/TK. It can be used to write command line or GUIs and can be self contained into a single executable, The freewrap version is a single EXE of 6MB and has GUI, Zip support, http support, etc.
I'm almost done with a installer in Go. Single binary for Windows, Linux and macOS. Currently it is 5.4Mb
A new OS? No real problem, as most OSes will be yet again lay onto UNIX or NT(windoof). I don't think we're going to see something really new anytime soon. Kernels do have to just work *bluescreen cough* and not been thrown together in 2 minutes. Getting offtopic as duck here!
