One way to get Phix working on Linux:
Download Phix
You need three files:
- phix.0.7.7.1.zip
- phix.0.7.7.2.zip
- p32 or p64 (match the bits of your computer)
Create phix Folder
- Make a phix folder. The suggested location is:
/home/user/phix - Open the .zip files with the Archive Manager and Extract the files to ../phix
- Copy p32 (or p64) to ../phix
Copy Files
Copy the essential Phix files to a /bin folder.
| Folder | Comments |
|---|---|
| /usr/bin | may be crowded |
| /usr/local/bin | a good choice |
| /home/bin | available on some Puppy Linux |
- copy p32 or p64 to ../bin
- rename to "p"
- change "p" permissions to "executable" or "allow running as a program"
- copy the ../phix/builtins folder to ../bin
This is enough to run console programs in a terminal.
Test Phix
In the ./phix folder open a terminal and test the interpreter:
$ p -test
You can now explore the demo programs in the /phix folder.
