UNTARRING the TAR Ball  (*.tar.gz file)
------------------------------------------

1.  Linux.  Conect to the directory containing the tar file
on your home machine. Then do.

% tar xzvf sen_align-0.0.tar.gz

This will create a subdirectory of the download directory called
finite-state-transducer-0.0.  Connect to that directory
(it should contain a file called setup.py) and follow the directions
above for installation.

2.  Windows.  You should use Python's tar package.

USING Python's Tar package (for Windows folks) 
  illustrated with Python 2.3.4 [works with that version or later]

You should connect to whatever directory you have placed
the tar.gz file in on your home machine. THEN
start up python there.
