Hi Fink Beginners,
I'm probably annoying here, but I'm more or less starting from scratch
after taking 5 years off of writing code and working the command line, and
was never great at it in the first place. But I'm interested in building a
CMS/CRM for my fund in Django and thought I would get started. I
successfully updated Python and downloaded Django, but I ran into problems
trying to install or update Postgres, which led me to need to install Fink
to manage the Postgres install. I ended up moving to Homebrew because the
installation was idiot proof, but I might as well get Fink up and running.
The main thing is that I need a blog post taking me through installation
that is idiot proof. I tried saving the script Install Fink.tool and
running it by clicking on it, and got no response whatsoever. I then tried
to run it from the command line but have no idea what I'm doing and that
didn't seem to work either. Any ideas?
