[Fluxus] Hi and where (and what) are the examples?

[Stefan Blixt]

Thanks Kassen! Somehow I was thinking that you might come to the rescue. :)

Good tips - the ctrl-0 page did the trick - now I understand how it works.

I installed fluxus by running apt-get, so I didn't really download any
package as such. I'll download the plain package from the site and see what
I'll find.

Thanks!
