From 65fde62857366321db50ee691aeb9ccacc49cf6e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: fiwswe <53953985+fiwswe@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2024 18:04:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Added the need for a text editor --- Installing-on-OpenBSD-7.6.md | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/Installing-on-OpenBSD-7.6.md b/Installing-on-OpenBSD-7.6.md index 8c690cc..db76845 100644 --- a/Installing-on-OpenBSD-7.6.md +++ b/Installing-on-OpenBSD-7.6.md @@ -12,6 +12,7 @@ * The [OpenBSD](https://openbsd.org) host needs to be able to access the Internet to install ports and to access the [pip](https://pypi.org/project/pip/) repository. * Sufficient disk space to install [Python](https://python.org), the [virtual Python environment](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html) and Radicale is assumed. (The needed space is not excessive, so in most cases this will be a non-issue.) * You will need access as `root`, either directly or by using [doas(1)](https://man.openbsd.org/doas) on the host. These instructions assume direct `root` access as indicated by the `#` prompt. A `$` prompt indicates that no `root` access is required for the command. +* A text editor of your choice or the capability to edit files elsewhere and transfer them to the host are also required. [vi(1)](https://man.openbsd.org/vi) and [mg(1)](https://man.openbsd.org/mg) are included in the [OpenBSD](https://openbsd.org) base installation and other editors such as [Emacs](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/) or [nano](https://www.nano-editor.org) are available as ports. (In theory you could get by without an editor. But that would involve complicated and tedious alternatives.) Note that text files follow the *NIX line ending convention, i.e. ending lines with a single LF (ASCII/UTF-8 0x0a, U+000a) character. The character encoding should be ASCII or UTF-8 (which are identical for anything described here). These instructions may also work on [OpenBSD 7.5](https://openbsd.org/75.html) and on future versions. But this is untested.
