Hi all!

I just downloaded the 'Python2.2.2.tar' file and as I am a new user I have no 
idea on how to install it. I have successfully extracted the compressed file.

The Readme file that came along with states the following:

"To start building right away (on UNIX): type "./configure" in the
current directory and when it finishes, type "make".  This creates an
executable "./python"; to install in /usr/local, first do "su root"
and then "make install".

This confuses me as it doesn't explain in any depth what one is supposed to 
do.

Can anyone assist me?
