pySoft is a version checking software tool. It scans for updates and notifies users about the latest upgrades available for their installed programs.
If you're looking for a reliable tool to keep you up-to-date on the latest versions of your software, pySoft is the answer. This unique software can check any program you have installed as long as it has a checker script available.
One of the best features of pySoft is that it comes with pre-made scripts for some of the most popular programs, saving you time and effort. Installation is a breeze, with a simple copy-and-paste method that takes only a few minutes to complete.
To start, simply copy the 'pysoft' file to your /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin directory, and then set the permissions to 755. Make sure it looks like this:
cp pysoft /usr/bin
chmod 755 /usr/bin/pysoft
ls -l /usr/bin/pysoft -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2851 2005-03-22 12:01 pysoft.py
You'll also need to copy all modules/* to your desired directory, such as mkdir -p /usr/share/pysoft and then cp modules/* /usr/share/pysoft/. Finally, you'll need to edit your config file. If you're using a root account, we recommend doing this in the /etc/software file. You can also opt to use the ~/.pysoft option if you prefer.
To begin using pySoft, start by reading the helpful instructions and looking for switches like "pysoft -h". Be sure to use the "-c" switch to point to your config file, and use the "-m" switch to indicate your modules directory. For example, if you're using the /etc/software configuration file and the modules directory is /usr/share/pysoft, run pySoft like so: "pysoft -c /etc/software -m /usr/share/pysoft".
Overall, pySoft is an essential tool for keeping your software up-to-date and running smoothly. With its easy installation process and reliable performance, it's sure to be a valuable addition to your software toolkit.
