Does that do it?

I can't figure this one out- I am the administrator, The file that I want
to install is a .tar.gz which is located on my desktop. How do I get it

little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and make us
feel like gods. We are mammals, and have not exhausted the annoying little
problems of being mammals.
