Hi Steve,

Very nice!

One comment:

- Users probably would like, for their operating system, a single command that 
they can copy and paste into their terminal to install the required packages, 
rather than going through each of the 23 packages one by one.  Also, the table 
format, while quite attractive, won't scale to adding columns for more 
operating systems, such as Mac OS.  

One question:

- Is this tutorial in a repository somewhere?
