We test Lab CodeTyphon 6.50 on ArchLinux
ArchLinux is an independently developed, x86_64-optimised Linux distribution targeted at competent Linux users.
It uses 'pacman', its home-grown package manager, to provide updates to the latest software applications with full dependency tracking.
Operating on a rolling release system, Arch can be installed from a CD image or via an FTP server.
The default install provides a solid base that enables users to create a custom installation.
In addition, the Arch Build System (ABS) provides a way to easily build new packages, modify the configuration of stock packages, and share these packages with other users via the Arch Linux user repository.

Ctl-X to exit and Y to save
3. Download-Unzip-Install
Download CodeTyphonIns.zip and unzip to your home directory
Open a terminal, and go to new CodeTyphonIns directory
cd CodeTyphonIns
Start CodeTyphon Installation with command
sh ./install.sh
Give zero "0" to Install CodeTyphon
4. Setup and Build (for GTK2)
After CT install you can start CTCenter or to continue with the open terminal
We don't select "MultiArch" option.
It's the first installation of CodeTyphon on this PC, so we install "system libraries" select "0".
Select "8" to build all...
5. Finally
CTCenter and Typhon64 for GTK2, with ALL Docked Option (single Window)
