I am brand new to Ubuntu, but I think I'm going to like it.

However, I'm wanting to download an HTML editing program at http://packages.ubuntu.com/bluefish and it gives several options.... and I'm not sure what to take.

It says I've searched and found 1 package.... but there's a list of seven things.

I want to master Ubuntu, but it seems I must start with downloads. It seems that I need to know the processor (i.e. AMD64) and this system was given to me in parts and I built it. But I'm not sure of the processor except that it's 1000Mhz. Of course I may be wrong in my assumptions. Ubuntu is definitely different.

Thanks for any assistance.

Oh yes, I'll be looking for a good FTP program as I cannot use my old Smart FTP for Sindows.

Again, thanks....

Why not use the package manager? It's designed to handle those details for you. Not only that, but it ensures that everything that package needs to run properly (dependencies) are also installed.
