I'd say do something like "dnf install git" and then git clone https://github.com/finanalyst/p6-inform.git That way you'll get a p6-inform directory that will contain exactly what Richard uploaded to his GitHub repository. And if you need to later copy the code to your own file, either use the "cp" command to start a whole new file, the same as another one in the beginning, and then edit it to your liking, or use your editor to copy certain lines to another file.
