Question regarding a 'source' file!

[jwilson]

Hi, I am new to linux and am not familiar with much of the operations yet.

I'm gonna download a source file for the setrage program:
http://www4.ncsu.edu/~distclai/rage128-howto.html , which is a .src.tar.gz file.

How do I install this program?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

btw, I am using RedHat version 7.0

[osnap]

tar -zxvf name.tar.gz

cd name

vi README (if it exists)

vi INSTALL (if it exists)

Thanks, I'll give it a try!
