Bug Description

Assuming that after downloading the app, I open the Readme file:

To install the native application
  1. Open a terminal window and point it into this directory
  2. run ./install.sh

If you get "No such file or directory" message, it means the current directory is not the root of the extracted directory. Read http://add0n.com/open-in.html?#faq13 page for more info.

This worked OK:

avid@Dell-5820:~/Linux-Mint/Programs$ ./install.sh
NodeJS status = 1
Installer is using the embedded NodeJS
