Re: Downloading Plugins

Oy mate,

those commands are always typed on the command line of the system.
*nix-OSes like linux and osx typcially provide bash as the standard
shell.

If you use windows you'll have to google or hope for another good soul
to answer.

Also - take a look at vundle (if it works in windows). It's a pretty
darn neat tool that automatically downloads and updates your plugins for
you.
