To untar all of the files in the tar file you would use this command:   tar xvf gnome-chess-2.2.0.tar   The will probably be a README and an INSTALL file telling you step by step how to install the program   Derrick ----- Original Message ----- From: joe To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, January 30, 2000 2:01 AM Subject: [newbie] tar files Hello everybody!
