My apologies if this is just noise. This is out of my realm of experience, BUT "apt-cache search" shared: arduino-mk - Program your Arduino from the command line Its description (from "apt-cache show"): "Full-screen character mode text editor :: THE (The Hessling Editor) is a text editor that uses both command line commands and key bindings to operate. It is intended to be similar to the VM/CMS System Product Editor, XEDIT and to KEDIT from Mansfield Software." I reread your request then reran the search with "arduino ide". That landed these: arduino - AVR development board IDE and built-in libraries junior-programming - Debian Jr. programming flashrom - Identify, read, write, erase, and verify BIOS/ROM/flash chips libmosquitto1 - MQTT version 3.1/3.1.1 client library libmosquittopp1 - MQTT version 3.1/3.1.1 client C++ library mosquitto - MQTT version 3.1/3.1.1 compatible message broker mosquitto-clients - Mosquitto command line MQTT clients DISCLAIMER: That doesn't mean those necessarily fit the "IDE" part of your need, though. The way "apt-cache search" works, those could possibly only include words that contain "ide" as part of their spelling. It's a trade-off for having a feature that sure pulls up a lot of handy information on occasion. A slight variation using "arduino cli" received: arduino-core - Code, examples, and libraries for the Arduino platform arduino-mk - Program your Arduino from the command line libmosquitto1 - MQTT version 3.1/3.1.1 client library libmosquittopp1 - MQTT version 3.1/3.1.1 client C++ library mosquitto-clients - Mosquitto command line MQTT clients Hope that helps lead to something else if none of it is quite appropriate. That arduino-mk description is creating a visual image of elinks' format for me. PS I'm going to take a peek at that junior-programming option. Its description makes it sound like it just might communicate at about the speed of my brain these days. Highlighting it in case someone might want to test drive it with actual kids. :D Cindy :) -- Cindy-Sue Causey Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with birdseed *
