Once you have downloaded the appropriate package, untar the file into a directory on your system like so:
%> gunzip moneydance_*.tar.gz %> tar xf moneydance_*.tar -C /usr/local
This will create the /usr/local/moneydance directory. We use /usr/local as an example, Moneydance can be installed in any location.
** /Please skip this step if you are not installing the "Other" package. / If you downloaded the "Other" package above, you will need to create a symbolic link named "jre" in the /usr/local/moneydance directory that points to the location of Java on your system. For example, if your java executable is at /usr/j2se/bin/java then you should create the link like so:
%> cd /usr/local/moneydance %> ln -s /usr/j2se jre
** You can now run Moneydance by executing the 'moneydance' script in the new directory.
%> /usr/local/moneydance/moneydance
To make starting Moneydance from the command line easier, you can create a symbolic link in your path that points to the moneydance startup script:
%> cd /usr/local/bin
^^^^^^^^^^^
%> ln -s /usr/local/moneydance/moneydance moneydance
For your convenience we have provided a moneydance.xpm file that can be used with a desktop icon for launching Moneydance from a GUI such as KDE or GNOME.
Terry, Is /usr/local/bin on your $PATH
