Download TRE

TRE is released under a license which is essentially the same as the "2 clause" BSD-style license used in NetBSD. See the file LICENSE, also included in the source code package, for details.

In case you have been using previous versions of TRE in your program and are wondering how the license change (TRE used to be LGPL) affects you, the answer is simple: you can keep using TRE. The new license is much simpler and more permissive than the old, and it's compatible with the GNU GPL.

Binaries

Binary packages are available for various systems, but I'm not maintaining those myself. If you maintain some TRE packages but they're not listed here please let me know.

Debian, Ubuntu, etc.

There are Debian packages available for most dpkg -based systems (Debian, Ubuntu, GNU Solaris, etc). The tre-agrep, libtre4, and libtre-dev packages are what you want. Just enable the appropriate sources in /etc/apt/sources.list (e.g. for Ubuntu you want to enable universe) and run

to install everything.
