Hercules Mainframe Emulator

[Spyromaniac]

I want to be able to use the latest version of the mainframe emulator Hercules v3.03 see http://www.conmicro.cx/hercules/ but synaptic package manager only shows an old version v2.17. How do I install the latest version?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Try this article from debian admin website: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/484

To install on Ubuntu Edgy Eft, change command: aptitude install hercules to command: sudo apt-get install hercules

Then just follow the instructions in the article, e.g:

sudo apt-get install hercules
mkdir /etc/hercules
cd /etc/hercules
......

Enjoy...
