I'm sorry, I don't understand. YesI know how to open a terminal window
and I understand that you would like me to type in that command.

This is what I get in return:

"Authorize application to access Launchpad on your behalf
Confirm Computer Access

The Ubuntu computer called Lappy wants access to your Launchpad account.
If you allow this, every application running  on Lappy will have read-
write access to your Launchpad account, including to your private data.

If you're using a public computer, if Lappy is not the computer you're
using right now, or if something just doesn't feel right about this
situation, you should choose "Do Not Allow 'Lappy' to Access my
Launchpad Account", or close this window now. You can always try again
later.

Even if you decide to give Lappy access to your Launchpad account, you
can change your mind later."


As you can probably guess I don't feel quite right about this so I am going to 
choose "Do not allow 'Lappy' to access my launchpad' - Why because I don't know 
what it is going to do. Please include in your instructions what you are doing. 
Is this nefarious activity? I don't know. Is this going to help solve my 
situation. I don't know.

While I understand how to open and use terminal. I don't know what
most/all of the commands do and would appreciate a little more
explaination so I can start to understand what I am doing. Not just
copying and pasting some commands that are given to me.
