Hi All,
I've noticed many of the programs one downloads are in a .tar.bz2 or some other zipped format. Many instructions say to use the terminal. In these instructions there is a "make" command, which it seems Bash does not support. Is there a similiar command or is an area Puppy's version of Bash is lacking.
Thanks,

Thanks Bugman,
I downloaded the devx_412.sfs from here to the / directory, as per one discussion thread I read.
I found the following steps from here :
2. Click on the devx_xxx.sfs in a ROX-Filer window to mount it.
3. Open a terminal in the mounted directory.
6. # cp -a --remove-destination ./* /mnt/hda2/
7. # sync
8. Close the terminal.
9. Click on the devx_xxx.sfs file to unmount it
I got an error for line 6 and changed it to
cp -a --remove-destination ./* /mnt/home/
and all went well.
Thanks again
