 1. Fetch the userApps directory:
 
    Alternative to `git` command, a gzipped tar file is available
    with all the source, via FTP or HTTP:
 
         ftp://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/apache/htdocs/admin/exe/userApps.src.tgz
         http://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/admin/exe/userApps.src.tgz
 
    Unpacking that file (tar xvzf userApps.src.tgz)
    creates a directory: `./userApps/`
    with all the source.  Proceed to step 2 to build this directory.
 
    Using `git` to fetch the source, creates a directory `./userApps/`

 2. Build the utilities:
 
         cd userApps
         make
 
    This build fetches (with git) approximately 200 Mb/7,800 files of
       kent source code, and constructs about 223 command binaries
       of approximate size near 600 Mb.
 
    The resulting binaries are in `./userApps/bin/`
