Fedora 42 : First test with red language - part 001.

Red is a next-generation programming language strongly inspired by Rebol, but with a broader field of usage thanks to its native-code compiler, from system programming to high-level scripting and cross-platform reactive GUI, while providing modern support for concurrency, all in a zero-install, zero-config, single ~1MB file!

I download and change to be executable:

[mythcat@fedora ~]$ cd red-lang/
[mythcat@fedora red-lang]$ ls
red-03oct24-920dd0452  red-toolchain-03oct24-920dd0452  red-view-03oct24-920dd0452
[mythcat@fedora red-lang]$ ls -l
total 4444
-rw-r--r--. 1 mythcat mythcat 1347348 Oct  4 23:56 red-03oct24-920dd0452
-rw-r--r--. 1 mythcat mythcat 1611781 Oct  4 23:55 red-toolchain-03oct24-920dd0452
-rw-r--r--. 1 mythcat mythcat 1589092 Oct  4 23:55 red-view-03oct24-920dd0452
[mythcat@fedora red-lang]$ chmod 760 red*
[mythcat@fedora red-lang]$ ls -l
total 4444
-rwxrw----. 1 mythcat mythcat 1347348 Oct  4 23:56 red-03oct24-920dd0452
-rwxrw----. 1 mythcat mythcat 1611781 Oct  4 23:55 red-toolchain-03oct24-920dd0452
-rwxrw----. 1 mythcat mythcat 1589092 Oct  4 23:55 red-view-03oct24-920dd0452

I check and install these supporting libraries:

sudo yum install glibc.i686
sudo yum install libcurl.i686
sudo yum install gtk3.i686

I start with the basic intro example from the official website.

Then I need to check the missing files with the DNF tool and install Fedora packages for each error on runtime with executable result

dnf provides \*/libgtk-3.so.0

The result is this:
