Hereafter the actual command:

pcalc-000.tar.gz
studio@linux:~> tar xf pcalc-000.tar.gz 
studio@linux:~> cd pcalc-000/

studio@linux:~/pcalc-000> cd /usr/bin/
studio@linux:/usr/bin> ls pcalc
pcalc
studio@linux:/usr/bin> 

I have extracted pcalc-000.tar.gz, then, from within /pcalc-000, I have launched
pcalc as there was an executable in this directory, but without success. Then I
have launched make install, the file was copied in the usr/bin directory, but b
ush told me:

bash: /usr/bin/pcalc: No such file or directory

I have read the README file but there weren't hints about installing pcalc.

installing files into / requires root. so you need to sudo make install or change to root first some other way before trying to install.

I have tried this before, without success. Here the actual commands:

studio@linux:~> cd pcalc-000/
studio@linux:~/pcalc-000> sudo make install
root's password:
install pcalc /usr/bin
studio@linux:~/pcalc-000> pcalc 0y01001001
bash: /usr/bin/pcalc: No such file or directory
studio@linux:~/pcalc-000> 

How can I do ?

sorry, didn't see that you ran sudo already. you should start with the latest pcalc-v3 release instead of the old/original 000 release.

Dear @vapier,
Could you be so kind to generate .exe for the rest of us who are mere Windows users w/o compiler?

[vapier]

sure, i've posted one for the latest v4 release. i gave it a quick test under Wine, but not actual Windows ;).
