Installing Designer on Linux

[melevine]

When I download Sencha Designer for linux (64bit) I get a ".run" file. It doesnt appear to be an archive of any sort and there's no indication of what might happen if I made it executable and ran it. I was kind of expecting either an archive (tar/zip etc) or an rpm/deb package.

What am I supposed to do with this guy? And if I run it what's going to happen?

SenchaDesigner-2.0.0.000279-x64.run from http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?152941-Sencha-Designer-2-Beta-Download-links

It's just the installer. As long as you have the right arch (32 or 64-bit) you just simply do the following:

chmod +x SenchaDesigner-2.0.0.000279-x64.run
./SenchaDesigner-2.0.0.000279-x64.run
