Download Tinybooker

Installation Guide

To install Tinybooker:

• Your machine must run Linux operating system.
• You must have Python programing language version >= 2.5 but < 3.0 installed.
• Your Linux must have Graphic Toolkit library GTK2 installed (standard in most distributions).

Tinybooker is build under Fedora and Gnome desktop, but is tested also in Ubuntu and KDE desktop. If you try Tinybooker in some other Linux distribution I would be glad to hear how it works.

To install Python visit Python's home site: http://python.org/download.

When you have downloaded Tinybooker, the installation goes as follows:

$ tar -xzf tinybooker-0.2.x.tar.gz # uncompress the downloaded Tinybooker package $ cd tinybooker-0.2.x # go to the uncompressed directory $ ls # it should look like that tinybooker PKG-INFO README setup.py # the next step must be done as root $ sudo python setup.py install # run the setup script

Tinybooker installation is now done. By default Tinybooker is installed to folder .../site-packages/tinybooker under your Python library and a short Tinybooker startup script 'tinybooker' is put to folder /usr/bin. Write

$ tinybooker

You can also run Tinybooker without running the setup script.

$ cd tinybooker # In the folder tinybooker-0.2.x change to folder tinybooker $ ls # it looks like that booker.py csvcnt gui.py pic settings.py tinybooker components.py datatypes.py __init__.py PKG-INFO tests const.py functions.py locales reports.py testtools $ python booker.py & # you can start Tinybooker also with this

If you lack the root privileges you can use Tinybooker from your home directory in the later manner.
