    Hi All

    I have installed talisman on A rasberry os, rasberry pi
    a did it by the doc per scriped option all good and installed
    and ready to do same editing , but it's ver 7 and no postie
    but maybe I have done same thing wrong for it not to be there.

    I forgot to update the documentation for building postie. It's the same
    as building the other binaries though.

    something like

    cd build
    mkdir postie
    cd postie
    cmake ../../source/talisman/Postie
    make
    cd ../..
    ln -s build/postie/posite

    To upgrade the unix version, delete the source/talisman folder and
    replace it, then just go into the build directorys and build all the
    tools again.

    APAM is the creator of TALISMAN, so his replies trump my info.. however:

    I run TALISMAN on a Raspberry Pi and you can just grab the new 0.8 version and follow the install instructions @ talismanbbs.com/docs/debian from the "Unpack the Tarbell" section thru the "Create Links" section.

    :P I know, from experience, that if you follow that set of instructions to the tee you'll upgrade TALISMAN really easily. Yes, you upgrade TALISMAN *in* the current directory you have it installed to. (You untar the new archived file into the build directory and then build it to the main directory.)

    Anyway, hope this helps!

    Thank you for these instuctions, will work on this one thank you

    To upgrade the unix version, delete the source/talisman folder and
    replace it, then just go into the build directorys and build all the
    tools again.

    and for this as well, will do same studying on it and hopefully
    get it done and upgraded

    Thank you
