I am wanting to install Mozilla Seamonkey. It contains a "HTML composer" which is what I use to edit and create websites. In windows you download the file, click on the .exe file and it installs. Apparently that doesn’t work in Linux. I downloaded the proper file ( seamonkey-2.26.tar-3.bz2 ) However I have no idea what to do with it. I would also be interested in the name of any other good HTML editor that runs nicely on Linux if anyone knows of a good "simple" one. I don't mind switching editors. I just don't know what to search for in the Software Center and I have not been able to even find one in there.

(rpm or debian--I think debian). Then if that's the case, just install it the usual way. --dm </body> </html>
