Download
========

You can get suse-get at http://gaugusch.at/linuxtools/suse-get.shtml
I RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO USE THE RPM PACKAGE, because it is signed with my key
and it is much easier to perform updates or de-installation.
You can also use the Makefile and do "make install" yourself, but there is no 
(maintained) uninstall.

The tar.bz2 file can be used to create an RPM package:
rpm -bb fou4s-0.x.y.tar.bz2
The RPM file is stored in 
/usr/src/packages/RPMS/noarch/suse-get-0.x.y-z.noarch.rpm


Installation
===========

RPM version:
rpm -Uvh suse-get-0.x.y-z.noarch.rpm

tar.bz2 version:
tar --bzip2 -xvf suse-get-0.x.y.tar.bz2
Note: On SuSE >= 8.0, tar xIvf doesn't work anymore, you have to use xjvf.
The --bzip2 option is universal.
