      I even understood, but I wonder why there is something for download on github? Do you have to upload it somewhere or what do you have to do with it?

        The Pi can install it directly from GitHub. This part here:

        git clone https://github.com/zerojay/RetroPie-Extra.git

        is the command for the system to download the package.

              Exit Emulationstation to access the terminal and then run each command, one at a time, starting with "cd ~".

                      Is this no longer available?

                      cd ~
                      git clone https://github.com/zerojay/RetroPie-Extra.git
                      

                      I get the following response:

                      Cloning into 'RetroPie-Extra'...
                      fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/zerojay/RetroPie-Extra.git/': GnuTLS recv error (-54): Error in the pull function.
                      

                      I don't understand Github so I don't know what that means.

                      I'm just trying to install Tiny Fugue anyway possible.

                      Cheers. :)
