You can install it into your home directory, and set the PATH  
variable, by putting it into the appropriate startup file of the  
shell you are running (see the man-page of the shell you are running  
for details). For example, under bash, one might put into ".profile"  
and ".bashrc" something like:
  PATH=<bin>:<old path>
where <old path> is the result of the line command
  echo $PATH
and <bin> is where you put your locally installed binaries.
