Thanks! Do you know what it takes to support linux?

unfortunately no, well if we could somehow make it under linux, then I could create a arch linux package

Maybe @mapitman got some intel on this :) https://github.com/agens-no/swiff/pull/1

Pretty sure after the changes I made in my pull request, I just typed make to get it to build.

Does «mint install agens-no/swiff» work on linux?

Hi, mint is supporting Linux according to their documentation. (Though, there are some limitations).

Also, I have tried installing swiff on a Docker Ubuntu container.

It is successfully installed either by using the make command (git clone https://github.com/agens-no/swiff.git && cd swiff && make && cd .. && rm -rf swiff/) or mint -> mint install agens-no/swiff.

Awesome. I will also try on a docker ubuntu container. Gotta learn that stuff sooner or later
