Re: [MLUG] WordPerfect 8 for linux

[John Engelbrecht <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I thought about that, that's why I also did 
EMAIL:PROTECTED:/usr/local/src/WP8# /mnt/cdrom/install.wp
or
EMAIL:PROTECTED:/WP8# /mnt/cdrom/install.wp
or
EMAIL:PROTECTED:/# /mnt/cdrom/install.wp

Either way, its all  the same,  i even try to follow the script,
but I can't follow it, I saw part where you can do -v for
Verbose, I also saw Syntax piece where shows availible Arguments,
but it does not specify what each Argument does, except for Verbose.
