Hi me again.
I have found a plugin that is suppose to work with "The GNU Krell Monitors" and help monitor the CPU temperature of my computer.
Well the next step in my learning process

has begun and I have started trying to use a makefile. I hope you don't mind but if I talk through it I may get a lot more out of it.
I have included the install instructions and the makefile contents below. Do I need to do is rename the makefile to "test" and then in the directory that the makefile is in is key in the command "make test"? What I am assuming will happen after this is a file called "sensors.so" will be created. After this file is created it needs to be copied to either ~/.gkrellm/plugins or /usr/share/gkrellm/plugins directory. Am I right? My only problem is I searched the hard drive and this folder does not exist?
Do I have the process right so far? I could go ahead and try it, but I figured I would run it by you first if I could.
Thanks for letting me bore you again,
Steve

The install instructions are:
--------------------------------------------------
*Requirement:
gtk :
http://gtk.org
gkrellm :
http://gkrellm.org
*Compilation:
make
*Test:
make test
*Installation:
Installation in home directory :
cp sensors.so ~/.gkrellm/plugins
Installation in /usr
cp sensors.so /usr/share/gkrellm/plugins
--------------------------------------------------
The MakeFile contains:
--------------------------------------------------
all: sensors.so
sensors.so: sensors.o
gcc -shared -Wl -o sensors.so sensors.o
sensors.o: sensors.c
gcc -Wall -fPIC -Wall `gtk-config --cflags` `imlib-config --cflags-gdk` -c sensors.c
test: sensors.so
gkrellm -p sensors.so
clean:
rm -f sensors.so sensors.o
