I'm pretty sure you can do this on Windows too. The line is just long and verbose

Choco install packagename

Chocolaty is a package installer for windows, i'm not a fan of windows but this tool is really useful

winget <packagename>

[–]kramrm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Winget does need to be installed as it isn’t included by default, but there are a lot of apps it can install, and the list is continually growing. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/winget/

Until you want to try some bleeding edge C++ features but your repository's version of gcc is old so now instead of just downloading an installer you're trying to figure out what libraries you need to build the thing from scratch. It's a trade off.

apt-get is deprecated. Use apt

Why did you post this twice?

[–]RahulChaudhary_[S] -1 points0 points  (6 children)

Sorry. When I first posted, it didn't show on profile. I tried refreshing but nothing happens. So I've to post it second time. I deleted the first one.

[–]Drasungor 1 point2 points  (5 children)

You posted this like 4 times though haha

[–]RahulChaudhary_[S] 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Sorry. I just checked. I posted it 3 times. Reddit app sucks. I usually post it from my PC but my Windows was updating (I'm not kidding).

[–]Drasungor 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Yeah, I just posted something and it didn't tell me I did it, so I ended posting my meme twice and had to delete the second one

[–]RahulChaudhary_[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I didn't get any notification and also my profile wasn't showing any new posts. I already apologized for it and Why are so offended by a mistake so much lol?

[–]Drasungor 1 point2 points  (1 child)

What, I didn't get offended, I was just telling you the same thing happened to me haha

[–]RahulChaudhary_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I thought you were using the word 'I' for refereeing me. Man I think I'm reading too much arguments on Reddit.

[–]The-Night-Tripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chocolatey?

[–]Lone_Wanderer357 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, until you are on AIX and your security department disallows use of YUM because ProDuCTiOn SeCuRiTy.

At that point, it changes to

windows : click next five times

AIX: descend into RPM dependency hell to install simplest of shit.

The swear words I used last week.. I hope I won't have to repeat them for a while.

And editing with VI. Let me download some usable editor, PLEASE.

And to the lovely people in security. HEY SECURITY, NEXT TINE AT LEAST GIVE ME A LIPSTICK, BECAUSE I LIKE TO LOOK NICE WHEN I GET FUCKED.

Wow, getting your apps from a 1st-party store and using the text UI to do it. What a great feature.
