  • Hey, this is your lucky day: You don’t need a github account.

    All you need to do to easily install this project is to install git.

    Open a terminal.

    If you are using a Debian-based distribution (ubuntu, linuxmint, pop_os etc), copy-paste this command:

    sudo apt install git
    

    If you are using an Arch-based distribution:

    sudo pacman -S  git
    

    From there, follow the instructions on the repo.

    Have fun!

    If you need any help, do not hesitate to ask for it.
































  • IMPORTANT UPDATE: Since many youngsters who unlike me, a senior citizen, live on the edge and hate vim keys or arrow keys, have requested an alternative navigation keys set up, I have just implemented a configuration option that satisfies just that.

    By editing the config file (either within the application or just editing ~/.config/tui-mines/tui-mines.config, and changing the NAVIGATION_KEYS value from vim+arrows (default) to aswd+arrows, the user can use the aswd keys to navigate in the game grid, just as requested.

    No other commands or hacks are needed.

    Arrow keys remain hardcoded, because they remind me of my youth, as an archer, during the Peloponnesian War
