Then I do a sudo mv (the file) to \opt the file needs to be run with sudo to get the correct privilege. The .\Sigil ... part is important |

Afraid I need the step by step recipie for this. I know where to type everything, but what is beyond me. Programming anything more complex than basic html is above my current skill set.

here's how I install: 1) download the correct file, linux OS and either 32-bit or 64-bit architecture. 2) Open a terminal session (command prompt) in the directory where the Sigil install file is. (Let's assume the file is Sigil-0.5.3-Linux-x86-Setup.bin ) 3) make it executable: sudo chmod 777 Sigil-0.5.3*.bin 4) run it: sudo ./Sigil-0.5.3*.bin 5) follow the prompts to complete the installation. Usually for a system-wide installation it is installed in /opt/sigil but you could install it under your home directory if you want. HTH. |
