Title: programs-packages on TC
Post by: david_ozura on March 25, 2009, 02:57:27 PM

Hi!
I am a SliTaz (www.slitaz.org) user and I would like to try also TC. I can't find a list of packages / programs on TC web pages - which programs / packages is possible to install on it.
I am interested in GIMP, abiword, gnumeric and mozzila firefox.
Thank you.
Best, d

You can run the appbrowser program within TC or view the lists here: http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/ (http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/) in the TCE and TCZ sections.

If you are new to TC, the TCE is essentially a .tar.gz of the binaries for a package, and the TCZ is the same set of files stored as a compressed iso image or a cramfs image (so it can be loop-mounted).
