ticalc.org "Package Manager"
TC01:
This project is my longstanding attempt to create a command line utility and Python library for accessing, searching, and downloading projects from ticalc.org (and other sites).
Current version is 1.1; 2.0 has been in development for a while but is hopefully nearing a release with possible support for downloading programs from Cemetech and Omnimaga as well.
Development is generally happening at github- you can clone a snapshot from there. Or, you can download the latest version from ticalc.org for Windows or Linux. (Downloads are also hosted on Cemetech for Windows and Linux). Once it's downloaded, extract the archive and run "python setup.py install". Note that if you're on Linux, this command will probably require root access (su or sudo); no matter what platform you are on you will need Python 2.x to run it.
After installing it, you can run it on the command line using:
python calcpkg.py [command] [filename]
Note that if you're on Linux and using 2.0 or higher (or the 2.0 snapshots from github), you should instead be using:
calcpkg [command] [filename]
The first command you run should run is "update"- this will create a local copy of the master.index file from ticalc.org that calcpkg knows how to use for searching and so on. Then you can run "calcpkg search" and "calcpkg install", which will list and download programs. For a full list of all possible options, run "calcpkg -h" (or possibly refer to the README).
Here is a rather old screenshot:

Cool :D
Can't wait for more features! :)

Sweet! Can't wait to play around with this!
EDIT: Err, when I try to run this on my linux partition, it fails on all version of python I have installed (python, python2, python2.7, python3, python3.1)
DJ Omnimaga:
Nice, will this work on Windows 7 x64?

I'm guessing that if you can get the right version of Python installed that it should work
