winget install Pylogmon.pot

1. Download the installation package ending in .msi from the Latest Release page.
2. Double click the downloaded file to install it.

I would be very happy if someone could add this software to Homebrew. Because I don't have a Mac, and I don't know how to do it.

1. Download the installation package ending in .dmg from the Latest Release page. (If you are using M1, please download the installation package named pot_{version}_aarch64.dmg, otherwise download the installation package named pot_{version}_x64.dmg)
2. Double click the downloaded file to install it.

• "pot" can’t be opened because the developer cannot be verified.

  Click the Cancel button, then go to the Settings -> Privacy and Security page, click the Still Open button, and then click the Open button in the pop-up window. After that, there will be no more pop-up warnings when opening pot.

  If you cannot find the above options in Privacy & Security, or get error prompts such as broken files with Apple Silicon machines. Open Terminal.app and enter the following command (you may need to enter a password halfway through), then restart pot:

  sudo xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/pot.app

• If you encounter a permission prompt every time you open it, or if you cannot perform a shortcut translation, please go to Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Supporting Features to remove pot, and then re-add pot.

We provide AppImage and deb packages for Linux.

Please note that: There are two deb package, universal is based on glibc2.28 and openssl-1.1, If the regular deb package can't run on your machine due to dependency problems, please download the universal package, Due to its low version dependency, it can run on most systems.
