Tekkit Server - Gameplay Basics

Hey guys,

My friend runs a small Tekkit server and I've recently discovered the joys of turtles and ComputerCraft. I've been using a lot of the excavate program, but now I need to expand.

I've recently found http://www.computercraft.info/forums2/index.php?/topic/686-mine-manager-for-turtle-fleet/ but I've got a few questions that are too basic for that specific thread

1) Is the program compatible with Tekkit 2.1.3?

2) I've downloaded the files to my computer, but I don't know where to extract these files. How do I know which files need to go to which folder? Is it different for multiplayer?

3) The steps involve "install the program" both for the turtle and the server. I've got wireless modems on both the console and the turtles. How do I install the programs onto the computer?

4) Unrelated to the above program, but is there a monitor object I can build with tekkit?

I've scoured every wiki, forum post, and help file that I could sort through.

Thanks!

1) Yes.

2) It's different for multiplayer. Put it on pastebin, and do "pastebin get <ID> <filename>", ID being what comes after pastebin.com/ , and filename being whatever you want.

3) Step 2 installs them. Simply write the filename of the program you want to run (while being in the correct directory).

4) If you'd have looked for monitors on the wiki, you'd have found this.

You are awesome. Thank you! I had looked on the Tekkit wiki which listed monitors from a different mod.

Since these are multiple files and not a single program, do these need to be loaded individually?
