I'm a windows 10 user and just hooked up the new Linux BASH cmd line interface in the Win 10 Anniversary update. I was hoping to follow the "Getting Started with MicroPython on the Teensy" as a first step to having seeing how useful it can be.
Note: This is command line only, there is no GUI option (IIRC GUI was hacked on before release, didn't look to see if that still works):
I'm just finding my way around. For the micropython build these command line steps are working AFAIK!:
I found my way to the downloaded and extracted arduino-1.6.11-linux64.tar.xz:
I see the install.sh there - what are the words to install the right way to the right place?
<edit>It seems all the resources I found are either GUI based, different distributions, or just assume 'install' is an understood process. <all of which failed me trying to do this on a rPi>.
The same will apply to TeensyduinoInstall.linux64 - I'm not sure if that will work with no UI? Then of course "https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/49-teensy.rules" [though I accidentally started as root and didn't make a user yet]
And for TYQT if this runs on Linux too?: TyQt-0.7.5-204-g33f592f-osx.dmg I suppose I'll want to have that to try it's command line bootloader.
Without a UI I won't be able to run Arduino IDE on this 'Ubuntu Instance" [maybe get a makefile build working] - but I'm hoping I'll be able to build things like this and then get them pushed around as needed. Without having to deal with installing a full Linux GUI.
Any steps/help to see this work might open up a whole new world for Windows 10 users like myself - which was Microsoft's goal in this.
