Quick tips on installing stuff?

[fourthdimension]

Hey All

I downloaded a program in the form of a tgz file, and when I extract the contents of the file, I get a folder in which I can view all the program files. I have no idea how to go about installing from this point. Does anyone have any quick tips?
Thanks a lot.
