Why do we need /usr/bin/thecalculator

Open ItsJamie9494 opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

I run Windows most of the time, so I can't have a /usr/bin folder. Also, there is no theCalculator binary for windows. Why can't we make the calculator part of AstralMod in the source code.

If there was a theCalculator binary for Windows, you could change the path to whatever Windows path you'd like to use. Eventually builds for Windows will be published; in the meantime you can build it yourself.

theCalculator is written in C++. We didn't want to make the process for building/using AstralMod on your own super complicated. The simplest way for us to invoke theCalculator from JavaScript was to just find the application and open it.

I'll leave this issue open until official Windows binaries of theCalculator are released. :)
