sde is on a distinguished road
file management and making stuff :)

with this last project, i've been downloading a lot of source files, and compiling them to install.

i'm trying to figure out the proper way to manage the files here.

let's say i download abc.tar.gz, .. before i configure and make it , should i put it in /usr/local ? or /usr/src ? .. where should these files reside after being compiled and installed?
