(i've been asking questions like this a lot lately, eh?)

I'm unable/unsure how to install nero AAC on my fedora-13 box. I've downloaded the zip archive and extracted it. I see a linux directory containing this: 

neroAacDec  neroAacEnc  neroAacTag

no idea what to do next to install this.

i've, alternately, tried "yum search nero", but all I see is: 

nrg2iso.i686 : Convert Nero Burning Rom image files into ISO

which isn't the AAC converter (m4a to mp3) I'm looking for.

Open a terminal and do an ls of the directory. – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Dec 19 '10 at 0:26

What you have are a bunch of executables that aren't executable. Run chmod u+x against them and then put them somewhere convenient such as ~/bin (which you may need to create first). You will then be able to invoke them using just the command name (and of course, whatever arguments the executable may take).

copy neroAacEnc to /usr/bin and chmod u+x as explained above. this the path cd-rippers (e.g. asunder) will look for codecs, on Fedora 13
