Hi Ludo,

most of your questions are not really Vimprobable specific. I will try
to answer them and I hope the other subscribers won't mind going
off-topic a little.

You can move the binary anywhere you like. It would make sense to
include the location in your $PATH environment variable, though. That
means it can be called from anywhere without specifying the full path.

You have to understand what "make install" does. While "make" triggers
the actual compilation/building of the application, "make install" is
nothing but a copying process: the application itself and the manual
are copied to default, system-wide accessible locations. These
locations are specified in the Makefile (hence the first step of
modifying it as described in the INSTALL file). The default is to put
custom applications with the prefix /usr/local, i.e. the binary
into /usr/local/bin and the manual in /usr/local/share/man. Those steps
are printed for your convenience above. Meaning: By doing "make
install", you have already moved the application away from your
downloads directory.

This simply means that you do not have custom scripts defined to be run
inside the browser. This is just a feature which you don't need to use
obviously (personally, I don't use it, either). If you simply want to
get rid of this harmless message, I would suggest creating an empty
file in the specified location (using the touch command).

All that is printed on your terminal? Are you running some sort of
debugger? Is that the original source or some modified version? If so,
from where did you download it?
