## A: Download .zip or .tar.gz and Extract Source Code

Note that these are NOT the files with _-linux_, _-osx_, or _-win32_ in the title.

cd /home/your-user-name

Or:
tar -tvf ~/Downloads/name-of-file.tar.gz
The above commands should create a _manuskript_ subdirectory. Change into this subdirectory.
cd manuskript
