OT Shell installation question

Scripting Forums AppleScript | Mac OS X
#1

I have been asked by a friend if I can help him with this. So far I have been here:
http://unavowed.vexillium.org/pub/projects/unnks/
and downloaded this:
unnks-0.2.tar.bz2
I have uncompressed it and Im reading the ‘INSTALL’ so far so good.
I have terminal window open but I don’t think Im following the instructions correctly
as nothing appears to be happening. Shell not being something I am very familiar with.
Question is how should my shell strings look?

Im sure there are plenty out there in this forum that have done this many a time. TVM

Hi Mark

¢ in Terminal.app type cd, then a space character, then drag the unnks-0.2 folder into the terminal window
¢ Press return
¢ follow the steps in the install file, first type ./configure, then make, then make install, always with return and after waiting for the prompt

Stefan, thanks I will look again.

What I did was:

Keyed cd then space then drag & drop folder to terminal window for the POSIX path then I typed ./configure then return.

NOT

Key cd then space then drag & drop folder to terminal window for the POSIX path then key return.
Then key ./configure then return. etc

My confusion was over the differing single quotes in the instructions. NOT being a terminal user was not sure how to quote if at all when in this.

I am now getting further.
