Installation

OSX

If you already have homebrew installed, just run

brew install maxcai314/cowponder/cowponder

See the homebrew repo here: homebrew-cowponder

Debian

Install the .deb package by running the installer script

curl -fsSL https://max.xz.ax/cowponder/cowponder_debian_installer.sh | sudo bash

Alternatively, download the deb package file and install it manually using dpkg -i <cowponder_file>.deb

Windows

To install for powershell, run

Install-Module cowponder

If, upon running cowponder, you get an error saying running scripts is disabled on this system, run one of these:

# if you are running (or can run) powershell as administrator
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

# if you don't have administrator privileges
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser

This allows scripts like cowponder to run if they are signed. learn more here

More installation options are availible in the Windows powershell gallery.
