HELP!!! Hello World Sample Module

I am truly a newbie to the Joomla world and I would like to know where all of the joomla files need to be placed when creating a module.

I have the necessary files for the mod_helloworld but I do not know the proper procedure for uploading them to the correct directory.  I know that my next question will be on the actual steps to get them installed within the application itself.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you check out: http://dev.joomla.org/component/option, ... llo_world/

It gives you directions for created the module.  There are four files you need in total.  Three go in the root, the other goes in a directory called tmpl.  Package all of these into a zip file (it is gone for some reason - I will have to track it down) and then install it using the package installer.

im having a similar problem there at

http://dev.joomla.org/component/option,com_jd-wiki/Itemid,/id,modules:hello_world/

will this tutorial be expanded, enhanced, completed, or is it to be considered finished and closed as it is?
the former tutorial for 1.0.13 had a four step tutorial which went into more detail, are there any plans to adapt that to 1.5?

thanks
