@hippy Great ideas for command line users!
@will-v-pi Good point! I am certainly going to ensure my code works with the default SDK extension. I might even have to fire up a Windows box to test it.
@pie-face Installing built binaries to your system is pretty common. I have many locally compiled programs in /usr/local/bin such as the custom OpenOCD required for RP2350, and the custom arm-none-eabi-gdb GDB I built for Slackware that points to ARM target (since Slackware has no package).
Sooner or later a program won't have a package from your Distro, and you want build and install it. The good news is /usr/local/ only has these home built things, keeping it out of the usual system paths of /usr/bin or /usr/sbin.
