Extracting the Distribution
======================================================================
The PrimeAlert EventAction distribution file,
HALsmxeva_[version].tar.gz
must be extracted on a UNIX host before any packages can be installed.
For example, assume that the distribution file has been copied to the
following directory:
/tmp
In this case, the procedure for extracting the distribution would be:
% su -
# cd /tmp
# gzip -d HALsmxeva_[version].tar.gz
# tar -xvf HALsmxeva_[version].tar
Following the example above, the source directory [EXTRACT_DIR] would
be the following:
/tmp/HALsmxeva_[version]
