 If you have a Debian-like OS, such as Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi OS, or indeed Debian itself, please consider using the repository here: https://github.com/Online-Amateur-Radio-Club-M0OUK/oarc-packages - instead of following the manual installation steps below.
+==== MacOS Download ====
+Download [[https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/5x7y3hlkfgtvjx35g5dnm/AHhwU7hPuDG_5xU3MFbt9rI?rlkey=se06u2h1354lle6kk1omu41p1&dl=1|QTTermTCP.app]] (version 0.0.0.77)
+==== MacOS with Brew ====
+If you use MacOs with the [[https://brew.sh/|Brew Package Manager]] a tap has been set up that will compile the QtTermTCP binary from source including dependencies:
+<code>
+brew install tomwardill/oarc-qttermtcp-tap/oarc-qttermtcp
+QtTermTCP
+</code>
+This installs the QtTermTCP app as if it was a CLI app, so it must be started from the terminal.
+==== Ubuntu 22.04 - standard installation ====
+In almost every case, you are better off installing by following this guide than building it yourself: https://guide.foxk.it/clients/qtttcp/
 ==== Ubuntu 22.04 - manual installation ====

+===== Building from source =====
+This is not necessary for most use cases, just for reference.
+==== On Windows ====
+As of 0.0.0.79 commit a5e1b1389cbd9b3718b9ae41277f90633154cf47 from <nowiki>git://vps1.g8bpq.net/QtTermTCP</nowiki>
+With VS2022 on Windows 11
+Requires:
+  * C++ desktop development workload installed in VS Installer
+  * [[https://download.microsoft.com/download/5/C/3/5C3770A3-12B4-4DB4-BAE7-99C624EB32AD/windowssdk/winsdksetup.exe|Windows SDK 10.0.17763.0]] (VS will tell you if the version needed is now different)
+  * [[https://aka.ms/vs/15/release/vs_buildtools.exe|VS 2017 Build Tools]]
+  * Qt Visual Studio Tools extension (Extension Manager)
+  * [[https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.14/5.14.2/qt-opensource-windows-x86-5.14.2.exe|Qt 5.14.2]] (check version in QtInstall element in QtTermTCP.vcxproj) - you just need the msvc2017 bits
+Notes:
+  * Remove the hard coded path from the .sln file
+  * In the Qt VS Tools extension, add a Qt installation named "5.14.2" pointed at C:\Qt\Qt5.14.2\5.14.2\msvc2017\bin - this is referenced from the project file
+  * Run C:\Qt\Qt5.14.2\5.14.2\msvc2017\bin>windeployqt.exe C:\git\vps1.g8bpq.net\QtTermTCP\Win32\Debug
+==== On Debian-ish Linux (including WSL) ====
+Tested on Ubuntu 24.04
+<code>
+sudo apt install -y qt5-qmake qtbase5-dev libqt5serialport5-dev qtmultimedia5-dev
+mkdir build && cd build
+qmake ..
+make -j4
