Subject: [newbie] Installing a program via a shell script


I'm trying to install a program I downloaded (faxview, as mentioned on
Freshmeat). The download was a whopping 92 K shell script named
faxview-2.0b. While in the directory containing the download, I su'ed to
root and gave the command:

faxview-2.0b

and recived the error message "bash: faxview-2.0b: command not found"

What am I doing wrong? And recommendations for fax frontends gladly accepted.

Warren, try  ./faxview-2.0b at the prompt and see if that doesn't get it going.  Also Hylafax should be on the CDs and have a decent front end.  HTH
