GetFoxitReader script to download and package PDF viewer
« on: February 02, 2020, 03:05:29 AM »
Attached is a script that downloads version 1.1 of the FoxitReader  .deb  file, repackages it into a  .tcz , and creates the dependency
file. The dependencies are  libcups.tcz  and  gtk2.tcz , so make sure they are installed.  Download the script and then:
Code: [Select]
chmod 775 GetFoxitReader
./GetFoxitReader
cp FoxitReader/FoxitReader.tc* /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional
echo "FoxitReader.tcz" >> /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/onboot.lst
rm -rf FoxitReader
tce-load -i FoxitReader

You should see an icon appear on the wbar. FoxitReader is my PDF viewer of choice. I've been running this version for years. The
resulting extension is 4 Megabytes in size.

    [EDIT]: Fixed typo. Changed  onboot.llst  to  onboot.lst.  Rich
