Getting the CLEX 3 File Manager
The CLEX 3 branch is no longer developed, but bugs will be corrected. All users are encouraged to upgrade to CLEX 4 if possible.
Method 1: Downloading individual RPM packages
All RPMs are signed using this GPG key. The size of the RPM files is about 400 KB.
These packages were built on a Fedora system and were statically linked. Shared library libc
is required at runtime though. The RPMs usually work well on all recent Fedora, Red Hat and CentOS distros.
They probably run fine on many other rpm based Linux distros.
See also the method 2 below for alternative repositories.
Latest version of this branch
- clex-3.19-1.i386.rpm - Linux i386 RPM
- clex-3.19-1.x86_64.rpm - Linux x86_64 RPM
Method 2: Third party packages
CLEX software packages are also available from several external sources. Below is a list of external CLEX sources we know about. Maybe you will find the package you are looking for there.
-
FreeBSD - CLEX is included in the FreeBSD ports collection,
to install it simply run pkg_add:
pkg_add -r clex. - Debian - Debian users please download the software from the Debian packages archive.
- Dries RPM Repository - this repository offers CLEX RPMs for Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
- Dag Wieers Repository - this repository offers CLEX RPMs for Fedora, RHEL, and CentOS.
Method 3: Compiling from sources
This is the way to install CLEX on any compatible system. An ANSI/ISO C compiler is necessary to
compile CLEX from the source code. You will also need the ncurses library which
is part of most (if not all) system distributions.
Download the source (file size is about 200 kilobytes) and unpack it. Run ./configure
and then make. Finally run make install as root.
Read the INSTALL file for detailed instructions.
In case you want to build an RPM package, the spec file is already included. All you need is
rpmbuild -tb clex-3.X.tar.gz (as root).
