Assumes install is in the home directory. Just cd to your home directory and perform a git clone on my repo. git clone git://github.com/ngopal/UsefulUnixFunctions.git 2. Edit your ./bash_profile or ./bashrc to add the UsefulUnixFunctions directory to your PATH: 3. Create alias commands to the scripts if you wish (also done in your bash profile or bashrc). NOTE: sum is already a command (used for checksums).
