Ideally, you should use a package manager to install software. Many packages are now available in Bioconda, and here are instructions on how to install and use it: https://help.cropdiversity.ac.uk/bioconda.html .

If you are working on a mac OX, you could also use Homebrew.

Here is a link to a nice glossary of terms used in the command line from Data Carpentries: https://datacarpentry.org/shell-genomics/reference.html
