AgiNG - A Norton Guide reader for the terminal

Introduction

AgiNG is the latest in a long line of Norton Guide tools and readers I've written, starting in the 1990s. It is designed to be as comprehensive as possible, keyboard-first but mouse-friendly, and to look as good as possible.

Installing

pipx

The application can be installed using pipx:

$ pipx install aging

Once installed run the aging command.

Homebrew

The package is available via Homebrew. Use the following commands to install:

$ brew tap davep/homebrew
$ brew install aging

Once installed run the aging command.

Using AgiNG

The best way to get to know AgiNG is to read the help screen. Once in the application you can see this by pressing F1.

Commands can also be discovered via the command palette (ctrl+p):

Features

• Manage a directory of all of your Norton Guide files.
• Read Norton Guide files (obviously!).
• Clipboard support (copy text or copy source).
• A command palette to make it easy to discover commands and their keys.
• A rich help screen to make it easy to discover commands and their keys.
• More as time goes on.

File locations

AgiNG stores files in a aging directory within both $XDG_DATA_HOME and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME. If you wish to fully remove anything to do with AgiNG you will need to remove those directories too.

Expanding for the common locations, the files normally created are:

• ~/.config/aging/configuration.json -- The configuration file.
• ~/.local/share/aging/*.json -- The locally-held data.

Getting help
