Terminal Magic

    Today when I was told to run this:

$sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh

I knew it was to be run in a terminal window. I did a quick look and it 
said I should see a file named "install-css.sh in the /usr/share/doc 
directory which is VERY full of information and then goto the 
/libdvdread3 directory. Here is what I found:

karl at karl-desktop:/usr/share/doc/libdvdread3$ ls
changelog.Debian.gz  copyright       README.Debian
changelog.gz         install-css.sh  TODO

The install-css.sh is a bash file that finds the proper web page and 
downloads the library you need. I did all this because not all help is 
help. You need to make sure what it does at least makes sense.

    Today this works fine and hope it works for many months.
