Pulling engine right now - Quick help Please

It's already getting dark and I'm having some trouble. I found this statement:

"All you have to do to get it out is use a LONG screwdriver and go through the access panel on the bottom of the tranny and slide the throw out bearing back (separating it from the clutch) and you are done."

How is that done, it's the only thing keeping the engine in place. I really appreciate your help

yeah, this is no big deal

basically you have a little flimsy looking collar, push the clutch in or out, until it comes away from the pressure plate about 1/4", when it does, reach a screwdriver in there and push it against the pressure plate, this seperates the assembly

make sense?
