~~Title: E16~~
{{page>incl:start-shortcuts}}
==== About E16====
E16 is predecessor of the current E22 Enlightenment Window Manager. Although most of the current development focus goes to E22, E16 is still under active development and some users prefer it to E22. This page should summarize the links related to E16.
==== Download ====
We place all of our releases here:
* [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/enlightenment/files/|sourceforge.net/projects/enlightenment/]]
==== Releases ====
{{page>download-e16}}
----
We provide original source code "tarballs" as the canonical release of what we make. It is left up to distributions and individuals to make specific packages to their operating system. See your distribution packages for details.
==== Library of Themes ===
There is a large [[http://themes.effx.us/e16|collection of themes]], which can be used together with E16. You can find there also [[http://themes.effx.us/eterm|themes]] for oldschool Eterm.
==== Compilation ====
For every tarball you download untar it with ''tar zxf file.tar.gz'' and then go into the directory created. Please see the README file in this directory for each project for information on dependencies, configuration etc. Just remember that all our release tarballs come with configure set up so to compile you just need to do this in the source directory:
<code bash>
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig # needed on Linux to update linker library database
</code>
If ''configure'' fails, you are likely missing a dependency - provide it. It should tell you what that dependency is. **NOTE** that you can provide arguments to ''configure'' such as ''--prefix=/opt/e'' or similar.
----
==== Master source repositories ====
Our source code is developed collaboratively in a pretty typical open source manner. Our master branches in git are where all new development goes into as it happens, but the main [[https://git.enlightenment.org/e16/e16.git/|E16 branch]] is generally pretty stable.
If you have issues please refer to our [[contact]] page to get in touch with us.
All our git repositories are in section E16 listed on:
* [[https://git.enlightenment.org|git.enlightenment.org]]
