Ok guys, I'm new to this. I am starting to learn the terminal. I know a few basic commands. I have played around with various distrus of Linux before, and I know what x11 window system is. At least, I understand the purpose of its existance on Linux.
Here is the thing. I'm interested in playing with all of this stuff on my new PB, but I am slightly confused as to what is what, and what does what. I was originally under the impression that this "Fink" was x11 apps remade to run on my Mac. Before I had heard of "Fink," I believed I could run any x11 app with the x11 available from Apple. Now that I have just downloaded, installed, and started playing with Fink, it appears that they are not even related. I'm slightly confused.
Hopefully you guys can give me some insight as to what is really what, and the purpose it serves. Maybe help me make some connections. Any explinations would be great really. Thanks guys.
