Install from desktop

After downloading the .AppImage file you need to make it executable. You can right click on the .AppImage file and select properties (might be named something different depending on your desktop manager). From there you need to select Permissions, and select "Allow this file to run as a program" or something to that effect.

You should be able to double click on the .AppImage file to start WhippyTerm.

Install from command line

After downloading the .AppImage file you need to make it executable. You need to open a terminal and change directory to where you downloaded the .AppImage. You now run "chmod +x" on that file.

For example:

chmod +x WhippyTerm_1.0.0.0.AppImage

Now you can start WhippyTerm by running the .AppImage using a "./" in front of the filename.

For example:

./WhippyTerm_1.0.0.0.AppImage

Problems

If you have problems starting the .AppImage (at least under Ubuntu) you might need the FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) library installed.

In a terminal run the following:

sudo apt install libfuse2
