   One important note: this builds/installs the latest development (e.g.   
   alpha/beta) build of SyncTERM, not the latest release. The latest release is   
   found here:   
   https://sourceforge.net/projects/syncterm/files/latest/download

   That script looks error prone, for example:   
   # Change directory to   
   echo "Change into the 'make' folder"   
   D=$(ls -1hrtd sync*/|tail -1|sed 's/\/$//g')   
      
   Makes naive assumptions about the existence or absense of other directories   
   named "sync*".   
      
      
    > P.S. Netrunner is a binary download - you just run it...   
      
   FYI, there are nightly builds of SyncTERM development code too, e.g.   
   ftp://ftp.synchro.net/syncterm-linux-x64.tgz ("just run it")
