<li value="8">Issue the following command:<br><b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">./configure && make</span></code></b><br>Most likely, you will get an '''ERROR!''' What do you think the error is telling you?<br></li>
<li>Issue the following command to install the files for application development by issuing the command:<br><b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"</span></code></b></li>
<li>Issue the command in step 78. You should get another ERROR! What dependency is missing?</li>
<li>Issue the following command to install the library files for SQL by issuing the command:<br><b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">sudo yum install SDL-devel libpng-devel zlib-devel</span></code></b></li>
<li>Reissue the <b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">./configure && make</span></code></b> command. Were you successful?</li>
<li>Test your script to make sure it works.</li>
<li>Test your script again, but feed it nonsense data (e.g. answer 'very much so' instead of 'y' or 'n' when prompted about compression).</li>
<li>Add loops around your prompts for whether or not the user wants compression, and the compression type to make the script repeat each prompt until the user gives a response your script can actually use. Don't worry about doing anything with the archive name or path.</li>
<li>Now test your script again, with good data and with nonsense.</li>
<li>When you are confident your script works, you are ready to submit the lab.</li>
