Compiled builds? #6

Closed ghost closed 5 years ago

ghost commented 5 years ago

Could you please provide compiled builds ready for use? At least a Windows .exe version should not be that difficult.

Many thanks in advance!

Hi @Mynvo your question is two-fold. First TCHunt-ng was build with POSIX compliant OSs in mind, Windows is not one of them. I believe that with some level of work and dedication you will be able to build it, but that's something you have to attempt to do yourself.

As for providing compiled binaries. I am against doing so as running a binary fetched from the Internet may potentially be a risk. Better approach would be to have packages for different distros, but since you asked about binaries for Windows, this is probably of no interest for you.

Thanks for your detailed reply.

I can run TCHunt-ng in a Linux machine, just thought I'll save time with a ready to go solution similar to the original TCHunt.
