AI2 and Linux Setup

[Charlie Harris]

Hi
Want to install AI2 on my laptop.  Linux Mint 17 / Firefox.
Have downloaded these  files

http://appinventor.mit.edu/explore/ai2/setup

Appinventor Setup installer tar file

http://appinventor.mit.edu/explore/ai2/setup-emulator.html

/usr/google/appinventor/commands-for-appinventor/aiStarter &


Have double clicked the tar file to extract files.

Folder is:     /appinventor2-setup_1.1/appinventor/commands-for-Appinventor/

When I place the:     /usr/google..........    in the Linux Terminal it says file not found.


Is this the correct procedure or is the folder incorrect?

Thankyou

Chuck

Why not use AI2livecomplete. I use it with linux mint myself. Extract it. Make the .sh executable and it works. You can use it without and internet connection. You can make bigger apk's. The latest version is made from AI2 source of december 16th.

You can find it at http://sourceforge.net/projects/ailivecomplete/files/

Hi Peter and all

Thanks for info.   ( I am a noobie to AI2 and appreciate help)


I have downloaded the AI2Offline_16Dec14Zip  and using right click have set the file to execute.

Now to get AI2 alive complete running what do I enter in terminal ?

Thanks

Chuck
