Hello Jvandal, and welcome to the forums! :)
I'm not exactly sure what you're asking, are you asking to know what the subversion command does?
svn co http://svn.akelos.org/trunk/ akelos
svn: this is the executable that you call to run subversion (svn) commands
co: shorthand for 'checkout', this command tells svn to retrieve a repository from a location.
http://svn.akelos.org/trunk/: this is the url location where the code resides
akelos: this is the folder name where the code resides on your computer. This folder is relative to where the command line is. This is an optional parameter which defaults to 'trunk' or whatever the folder name of the repository you're accessing.
Subversion will then go through the process of downloading files from the specified location. Once it's done, you have the latest version of akelos in whatever folder name you specified.
If I misunderstood your question or have some mistakes. Feel free to reply, I'm no svn expert ;)
