Install Eclipse in Linux [message #52051]

Hello

I use Suse Linux 9.2 and just download eclipse-SDK-3.0.2-linux-gtk.zip.

I am also new in Linux, so I have two questions:
1. Where to unzip the file ?
(I unzip the file to /usr/local/bin, but now eclipse is not in the path,
so I must type /usr/local/bin/eclipse/eclipse in order to open the
eclipse.

2. What is the next step after the unzip ?
Should I open the startup.jar ? (how to open the jar ?)
Should I configure something and where ?
3. Is there a linux installation guid somewhere ? (the read me talks about
windows and mac only (altough the eclipse runs))

Thanks a lot
Oren

export PATH=$PATH:<PATH_TO_ECLIPSE> ?

Just start <ECLIPSE_INST>/eclipse...
