[Yum] How do I get started?

Hi folks:

Got a problem. I want to start installing new programs to my Fedora 
Core 2 system, using yum. But I've yet to get started.

First, basically how do you get started? The web site is no help, nor 
the man pages. After several false starts, I got the system fully 
updated. But still when I try an install, I get this:

***
yum install pico-4.33-37.i386.rpm >install.txt
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Base
Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Released Updates
Finding updated packages
Downloading needed headers
No actions to take
cannot find a package matching pico-4.33-37.i386.rpm
***

This happens on every package I try to install. I'm missing something 
here, so if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it. Apt-get isn't any 
help either.
