This is the pet compiled on Jammy64 for the official C client of the program tldr. Source code is available on its GitHub repo https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr-c-client.

Here is the pet package for Jammy64:

I will very soon upload one each for Fossa64/F96, Bionic64, and some other puppies.

@peebee, @Clarity, please take a look.

Thanks!

Hello @user1234
Started a VM where I launched JPCE v10 ISO via SG2D to desktop. Added the new 'tldr' to system and tested. Its OK. Looking forward to your next JPCE upgrade or its follow-on.

Hopefully, this helpful utility makes its way into all WoofCE PUPs.

This is interesting, but why bother with C client when a shell-script client is available and works just as well?

Thanks for pointing that out! Since the shell one is not an official client, it never got into my attention.

But currently, I am too bored of doing this package over and over again. First, I made one for the Python version, next this one. I don't think I will be making a pet version for that one in next few days (I'll do it afterwards).
