Cannot download/Compile OpenTTD (Linux)

I thought I'd give Xubuntu a spin again and play with OpenTTD and patches, since Linux is the only OS I know how to patch openttd on and compile into a linux executable.

Using the OpenTTD wiki for Compiling source on linux, I got to this part

svn://svn.openttd.org/trunk openttd

but then Terminal returns "bash: svn://svn.openttd.org/trunk openttd: No such file or directory"

I haven't done this in a while (about 4-5 years), so I'm pretty rusty at doing this.

Any ideas guys?

(Using Xubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit)

you forgot the "svn" command:

"svn co svn://blah foo"

Maybe a short look into the wiki would be good as well.
You need a lot of libraries ;)

I already got the libraries for OpenTTD, thats part of the steps to getting set up to compile.


Also, I tried

svn svn://svn.openttd.org/trunk

but that spit out another error that SVN didn't know what to do with it and said type svn -help for valid commands.

notice the added "co" (checkout) in between
