Install Termul

The desktop app is called Termul Manager. Every release has builds for macOS, Windows, and Linux on the GitHub releases page.

If you want to run Termul on a server and open it in a browser or on your phone, install termul-server instead. See Browser and phone.

macOS

You can install Termul with Homebrew, with the install script, or from a disk image. All three give you the same app.

Homebrew

brew tap gnoviawan/termul
brew install --cask termul

Install script

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gnoviawan/termul/v0.4.21/scripts/install.sh | bash

The link points to the script from a fixed release, so it can't change under you. The script still installs the newest Termul release.

The script does these things:

1. It finds the latest release and the disk image for your Mac (Apple silicon or Intel).
2. It asks Install Termul Manager <version> (...) to /Applications? [y/N]. Type y and press Enter.
3. It downloads the disk image and checks it against the release checksums. If the check fails, it installs nothing.
4. It copies Termul Manager.app to /Applications.

To skip the question, run the script with TERMUL_INSTALL_YES=1. To install somewhere other than /Applications, set TERMUL_INSTALL_APPLICATIONS_DIR.

Disk image

1. Open the latest release.
2. Download the .dmg for your Mac. The file ending in _aarch64.dmg is for Apple silicon. The file ending in _x64.dmg is for Intel.
3. Open the .dmg and drag Termul Manager into Applications.

Windows

1. Open the latest release.
2. Download the file ending in _x64-setup.exe or the file ending in _x64_en-US.msi. Both install the same app. Builds are for 64-bit x86 Windows.
3. Run the installer.

The install script does not work on Windows.

Linux

Linux builds are for 64-bit x86 (x86_64) only.

Install script (AppImage)

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gnoviawan/termul/v0.4.21/scripts/install.sh | bash

The script downloads the latest AppImage and checks it against the release checksums. Then it does these things:

• It saves the app as ~/.local/bin/termul-manager.
• It adds a Termul Manager entry to your application menu.
• It warns you if ~/.local/bin is not on your PATH. Add that folder to your PATH to start Termul from a shell with termul-manager.

Before it installs, the script asks you to confirm. To skip the question, run it with TERMUL_INSTALL_YES=1. To use a different folder, set TERMUL_INSTALL_BIN_DIR.

Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, and other packages

The latest release also has these files:

• A .deb package (Termul.Manager_<version>_amd64.deb) for Debian, Ubuntu, and similar systems.
• An .rpm package (Termul.Manager-<version>-1.x86_64.rpm) for Fedora and similar systems.
• The .AppImage file, if you want to manage it yourself.

Install the package with your system's package manager. For example, on Ubuntu:

sudo apt install ./Termul.Manager_<version>_amd64.deb

Arch Linux (AUR)

Termul is in the AUR as termul-manager. Install it with your AUR helper. For example:

yay -S termul-manager

Updates

The desktop app checks for new versions and can install them for you. You can pick the Stable, Insider, or Nightly channel. See Settings for details.
