g95 install

Hello,

I just realised that I posted this in the wrong section....

I'm new to this forum and this thread. I tried installing the g95 compiler like this...

edward@edward:~/Desktop$ tar -zxvf g95-x86-linux.tgz
g95-install/
g95-install/INSTALL

edward@edward:~/Desktop$ ls
g95-install g95-x86-linux.tgz
edward@edward:~/Desktop$ ln -s $PWD/g95-install/bin/*g95* ~/bin/g95
ln: creating symbolic link `/home/edward/bin/g95': No such file or directory

I don't understand what I am doing wrong, I tried using the Sudo command as well.

Any ideas?

Thank you
