  The Amiga binary distribution sets are distributed in the same form as
  the source distribution sets; catted together, the members of a set
  form a gzipped tar file.  Each Amiga binary distribution set also has
! its own "CKSUMS" file, just as the source distribution sets do.
  
  The instructions given for extracting the source sets work equally
  well for the binary sets, but it is worth noting that if you use that
  method, the files are extracted "below" the current directory.  That
  is, if you want to extract the binaries "into" your system, i.e.
! replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the "tar xvfp"
  from /.  Also note that if you upgrade or install this way, those
  programs that you are using at the time will NOT be replaced.  If you
  follow the normal installation or upgrade procedures, this will be

  the man pages you can type `man vi' or `man ed' for instructions
