The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply.
Your question was:

> gzip -d woodchuck.tar.gz
> tar -xf woodchuck.tar
> cd woodchuck
> xmkmf
> make all
> make install
> man 1 woodchuck
> /usr/bin/woodchuck

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

}% man 1 woodchuck

}
} WOODCHUCK(1)
}
} NAME
}         woodchuck - chuck wood
}
} SYNOPSIS
}         woodchuck [options] source [destination]
}         Options:
}         [-rlb]
}
} DESCRIPTION
}         This manual page documents the GNU version of woodchuck. GNU
}         woodchuck will chuck wood  from the source  directory to the
}         destination directory.  If no destination is  specified, the
}         wood is chucked into the user's current working directory.
}
}         It is  necessary  to remove wood  from an inode in  order to
}         make full use of it (exceptions: hike, sparrow, lemur, etc),
}         however the presence of too much chucked wood in a directory
}         can render it equally unusable. Hence it is recommended that
}         woodchuck be used in tandem  with sawmill(1), a  GNU project
}         replacement for the standard UNIX(tm) burn(1).
}
} OPTIONS
}         -r, --resilient
}                 Ignore  standard requests to  terminate. Will  only
}                 terminate on the use of ZOT -9.
}         -l, --lemur
}                 Lemur compatibility mode. Will not attempt to chuck
}                 wood already in use by the lemur program.
}         -b, --background
}                 Continue running, after the invoking user logs out.
}                 The same  result  can be  achieved  with  the nohup
}                 program.
}         -a, --all
}                 Chuck wood  from all directories  available  to the
}                 user. Use in conjunction with -br with caution.
}         -R n
}                 Specifies the  rate at  which wood will be  chucked.
}                 High values of n can increase system load markedly.
}         -h, --help
}                 Prints usage information.
}         -v, --version
}                 Prints version information.
}
} SEE ALSO
}         lemur(6), ZOT(1), sawmill(1), burn(1)

} AUTHOR
}         Joel Furr did most of  the work in porting  woodchuck from
}         the original Microsoft(tm) version. The Microsoft(tm) copy
}         is no longer distributed,  however  many of the key  ideas
}         are incorporated in Microsoft Windows(tm).
