11 So make sure you have them installed:
12 - on Ubuntu/Debian you need `libncursesw5` and `libncursesw5-dev`

15 Now download and install mdp:
17 $ git clone https://github.com/visit1985/mdp.git
23 - On Arch you can use the existing [AUR package](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mdp-git/).
24 - On Slackware, grab the SlackBuild here: (http://slackbuilds.org/apps/mdp/), or run `sbopkg -i mdp`
25 - On FreeBSD, you can use the port [misc/mdp](http://www.freshports.org/misc/mdp).
27 Most terminals support 256 colors only if the TERM variable is

30 $ export TERM=xterm-256color
