  2. On Unix or Linux
    1. for a user-based installation change to your home directory ~,
    2. for a system-wide installtion change to the directory /usr/local/share.
  3. On MacOS change to the directory ~/Library.
  4. Extract the downloaded file in that directory with command tar -xvf ~/Downloads/local.tgz.
  5. Run a command mktexlsr or some equivalent command to get the TeX system to recognize it.
