There was a mistake in the instructins. I just corrected it: http://energia.nu/guide/guide_linux/
It should be:
- Open a terminal and cd to your how directory:
cd ~
- unpack the energia using tar.
tar -xzf <directory you downloaded Energia>/energia-0101E00XYZ-linux64.tgz
To Run Energia:
In a terminal cd to the directory where you have unpacked Energia. e.g. /home/username/energia-0101E00XYZ-linux64/

Feel free to ask your questions.. A C book( from K&R ) is recommended if you wish to get well acquainted with the language.
