You can leave the task there, worst that can happen is it works.

Try the tutorial here: http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Teaching/Unix/ whenever you get the chance, I found it to be very helpful, especially in understanding how files and directories relate to each other. It will deal with basic stuff, like moving files around, showing their contents, teach you the manual and apropos commands, stuff like that.

And when you feel ready for it, come back and set this going! By then you may be able to recreate it from scratch anyway! In the meantime you can just double-click the file you downloaded to manually update, which is faster than going to the website to copy-paste a line anyway.
Thanks eschwartz. I'm learning tons. It's a little overwhelming at times but so interesting too. I'm going to look at that tutorial you gave me tonight. Appreciate all the help tons!
