	It need not be installed in a "system" area.  You can have it
in your (for example) $HOME/bin directory.

Anonymous ftp to ftp.cac.washington.edu, cd to pine/unix-bin-compressed,
set binary mode, and mget *.sun.Z

When you get the files in your home directory, uncompress each, and chmod
+x each executable. 

You will have pine, pico, and pilot.

I think that's all you need to do.

	Your question is very broad.  Do you need to know information
about the compliation of pine or will you simply acquire pre compiled
binaries from the ftp.cac.washington.edu?

	If you acquire the pre-compiled binaries for the platform you
are using you could simply place it in a directory which is contained
in your PATH and change permissions to 555 or 111.

	If this is not sufficient to answer your request then I'm
afraid you'll have to be a bit more specific as to what type of
information you need.  BTW, if I'm not mistaken the pine source
code comes with a README file that will be of valuable assistance
if you decide to read it.

	Regards,

		Ed

    That is much too large a task to discuss briefly on this newsgroup. 
Please fetch the Pine distribution and read the documentation.
