I am awesome!

Okay, well... maybe that's not a big deal to anybody else, but I've never (successfully) compiled and installed a Linux application from source code before. I feel pretty good about it.

I could have taken a chance on one of those homemade .debs, but no... I went all the way!

Cool! Keep up the good work :D

Next time, maybe you'll write the program yourself. ;)
