    Just a quick note based on the output you posted.
    sevag@sevag-laptop:/usr/share/fonts$ sudo tar xvzf /home/username/Mac_files/Mac4Lin_v0.4/Fonts/OSX_Fonts.tar.gz
    tar: /home/username/Mac_files/Mac4Lin_v0.4/Fonts/OSX_Fonts.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
    you should change "username" to your actual username.

    No problem. Just remember to check for things like that when you are copying code from webpages or other documents. And make sure that you have some idea of what the code is supposed to do before you run it. Some people are not exactly nice and will post code that will screw up your computer.
