[newbie] Star Office install

[Joseph S. Gardner]

OK, I spent 4 hours d/l'ing SO5.1.a created a directory in my
/etc/share/ as root and copied the tarball there.  I must be brain dead
or something but typing "tar xv so.something.something.tar" just gets me
a dumb look on the behalf of my monitor.  tried "tar -xv
so.something.something.tar" as well although I didn't think I needed to
add the "-" and got the same response.

Humbly
