Build and run your own version of Epsilon
Install the SDK
Windows
We recommend using the Msys2 environment to install most of the required tools. We support Windows 7 and up. Once Msys2 has been installed, launch the Msys2 terminal application, and enter the following commands
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc mingw-w64-x86_64-freetype mingw-w64-x86_64-pkg-config mingw-w64-x86_64-fltk git make python
export PATH=/mingw64/bin:$PATH
Last but not least, download and install the latest GCC toolchain from ARM.
macOS
We recommend using Homebrew to install all dependencies. Once you have installed Homebrew, install all the dependencies with the following command:
brew install armmbed/formulae/arm-none-eabi-gcc fltk freetype dfu-util libpng pkg-config
Debian or Ubuntu
Installing the required tools is just a command away:
apt-get install build-essential dfu-util gcc-arm-none-eabi git libfltk1.3-dev libfreetype6-dev libpng12-dev
Note that you may want to use the latest version of GCC distributed by ARM instead of the one provided by your distribution. In that case you can skip the gcc-arm-none-eabi package.
Retrieve the source code
The code is hosted on GitHub. You can retrieve it using the follwing command.
git clone https://github.com/numworks/epsilon.git
Run Epsilon on your computer
Once the SDK has been installed, just open your terminal (Msys2, Terminal.app, xterm, etc...) and type the following commands:
make PLATFORM=simulator clean
make PLATFORM=simulator
./epsilon.elf
Run Epsilon on your calculator
You can also update your NumWorks calculator easily. Note that you'll need to press the Reset button and that all data on your calculator will be lost.
make clean
make
make epsilon_flash
Congratulations, you're running your very own version of Epsilon!
