A Newbies Method of Getting X4 on your Server

[Viborahost]

The cPanel Offical documentation suggests installations should be carried out as follows:

curl -O http://httpupdate.cpanel.net/pubftp/x4/x4_install.zip
unzip x4_install.zip
cd x4_install
./install

This actually works better for the greater majority of Putty Newbies such as myself

wget http://httpupdate.cpanel.net/pubftp/x4/x4_install.zip
unzip x4_install.zip
cd x4_install
./install

Hope that helps...

I'm just curious, but how does replacing the Linux curl command with wget work better? They both accomplish the same task, and all you really need to do is copy the line from your Web browser and paste it into the SSH session.

Just a style preference kinda thing. Either wget or curl -O will work for downloading the plugin.

Absolutely, but my curiosity was about why one would make it easier, when the other commands required are the same.
