Source Code Installation
Hi, I'm fairly new to Linux and I was hoping that someone could explain
to me, as one would to a complete layman, how I would go about
installing a program from the source code.
What I do after 'untarring' or 'unzipping' it, and what I need to do in
order to succesfully install the program, and where I will be installing
it. I'm running FC 4 on i386.
Many Thanks,
Greg
