Install tldr on Linux ARM Device

tldr

The tldr project is a collection of community-maintained help pages for command-line tools, that aims to be a simpler, more approachable complement to traditional man pages.

Run it by typing "tldr " into terminal.

Maybe you are new to the command-line world? Or just a little rusty? Or perhaps you can't always remember the arguments to lsof, or tar?

It also is more digestable than man pages which blasts pages of useless stuff at you every time you use it.

Fortunately, tldr is very easy to install on your Linux ARM Device in just two steps.

  1. Install Pi-Apps - the best app installer for Linux ARM Device.
  2. Use Pi-Apps to install tldr.

Compatibility

For the best chance of this working, we recommend using the latest LTS of Ubuntu or Debian from your hardware manufacturer.
tldr will run on either an Ubuntu/Debian ARM32 OS or ARM64 OS.
