[Loadstone] Using the offline tools on linux

[Georgina Joyce]

Hi

Again, different language.  Did I not ask whether I needed to create a
database?  Not how do I create a database.  It's easy reading my own
code but how many php scripts do I need to read to find the listing of
the variables to contact mysql?  When it's somebody elses code it's not
easy.  Forgive me for asking a question.

four kinds of freedom, for the users of the software:

    * The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 0).
    * The freedom to study how the program works, and adapt it to your
needs (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
    * The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor
(freedom 2).
    * The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements
to the public, so that the whole community benefits (freedom 3). Access
to the source code is a precondition for this.
