Porting Linux Games

Novaz04:
I really want to get this online game client. I have no idea about the command line and have never typed a single letter into the terminal. How do I port this game? Keep in mind I have a very limited understanding of UNIX.

Thnks   :D

worker201:
Step 1:
Tell us what game you want to port
Step 2:
Install Apple X11, if you have not already done so
Step 3:
Install fink and see if the game you want is on there - if so, then things will be simple for you
Step 4:
Open up the terminal and look around.  You won't be able to cause any permanent damage, so feel free to type things and see what happens
Step 5:
Go to a bookstore or a search engine and find yourself a beginner's guide to *nix commands, and read

If the game is not installed by this time, I will walk you through the process.

Novaz04:
Tiba, I need to download the client, cause its online.

Do you have a link or something?  I couldn't find it in the first 2 pages of a google search...

Well of course, since rm isn't dangerous at all.   :D
