I've been using Sigil in Windows Vista for a few weeks.
Last week I installed Ubuntu on a separate partition. This is not my first exposure to Linux, but I am by no means an expert, as the following question will undoubtedly reveal:
The instructions in the Sigil Wiki read:
Quote:
Run the installer for your CPU architecture. Two are available: x86 and x86-64. If in doubt, use the x86 one. Qt is included in the installer.
After the installer completes, there should be an icon on your desktop and an entry in your "start menu".

In Windows this would simply involve double-clicking on the downloaded file. I tried this approach in the file manager and was asked which program to use to open the .bin file.
I changed the permissions to allow it to execute, double-clicked again and got the same result.
I tried to execute the .bin from the command line in a terminal and got "command not found"
I tried install Sigil-0.2.0β3-Linux-x86_64-Setup.bin and received a suggestion that I should review the --help option for install.
Can someone give me a hint? How do I actually run the installer?
