UNIX commands

I just tried to install MoinMoin wiki. No dice. I’ll try WikiRootry and may come back to MoinMoin if there’s no luck there either. The Installation Directions for MoinMoin just SUCK. Not for the rookie, IMHO.

Useful commands I’ve dug up in the process:

gunzip = for .gz files (1)

tar -xvf = for tarballs (1)
make, make check, make install (1) = for compiling &
installing.
ln = create a link (2)
pwd = show current path (2)

(1) See Unix Tutorial Seven
(2) See Files: Unix commands for creating, renaming, copying, removing, redirection and pipes
(3) See CommandLineFu for hundreds of hacks.
