Made Me Laugh (first trip to the command line.)

[Katherine Keller]

So, I decided to download and install Real Player.

I navigate to the site, find the file, download it, and with my
fershenglugger frissshin frashin YDL book in my lap, I fire up the
terminal, cd to the correct dirctory, type:

chmod +x rp8_linux_powerpc_cs1.bin and hit the enter key.

then I type the next line of the command:
/rp8_linux_powerpc_cs.bin and hit the enter key.

No such file or directory.

I want to cry.  This is the only place in the book that actually tells
about how to install software and it's not working!  ARRRRGHHHHH!  I
have no idea what the correct command is. I'm seething with hatred for
the CLI; Darth Katherine is in the house. 

Well, maybe, I think, maybe I really didn't put the file in that
directory. I click on my home folder, the directory I made, and, nope,
it's there.

What the hell, I think, and I make with the clicky.

Well, praise Jesus and pass the ammo!  A nice GUI installer pops open
and I now have real player running on this machine.

Too funny.
