My email to Jim Peters and how to install Sbagen in Linux.

Still trying to get your program running in Linux.

Do you know how to use the Terminal (aka Console or Shell)? You need
to use that to run it on Linux.

You need to 'cd' to the folder where you downloaded the TGZ, untar it,
then run it from there, for example:

cd Downloads # Where you downloaded the file
tar xvzf sbagen-1.4.4.tgz # Unpack the file
cd sbagen-1.4.4 # CD to the unpacked folder
./sbagen examples/basics/prog-chakras-1.sbg # Try running it

If it complains that it can't open /dev/dsp, then something else is
hogging it, so you need to shut the browser and anything else which
might be trying to play something, or is waiting to play something
(e.g. on pause).

I should probably upgrade it to use some external sound-playing
libraries if they are present, to work with the Desktop system when
something else is also using the sound output. I'll put it on my
list.
