How would I make Bible Analzer actually work?

[Jackalyn]

I have the whole of Bible Analyzer downloaded and have extracted the files and have an icon that looks as if if I click on it then the program would open and I would be able to use it. Unfortunately, what happens is that when I click on it -well it closes the finder thing and nothing else happens.

Is this like the Open Office thing I have where I have Open Office but can only open it using the terminal and if that is the case, what do I put in the terminal to open Bible analyzer? It is Bible Analyzer 4.5. -Or, do I need to do something iwith Wine?

(I also still have the whole of Calligra Author on my desktop. )This is NOT Calligra 2.5 which I also have and this remains as a tar gz file and I cannot seem to run that either although I clearly have all the files. If anyone has any ideas about that I would still like to try it.))

Gosh when those two are sorted I cannot think of another thing I need.




Thx

Did you download the .deb file?

[grahammechanical]

Please, tell us which of these file formats you downloaded?

If you downloaded this file:

bibleanalyzer.4.5-5.all.deb then you do not unpack it. You right click it and select Open with Ubuntu Software Centre which will install the program for you and provide an un-install option should you need to remove the program.

Perhaps you should read this:

I did read that one which is why I am confused. Yes .deb files and when I right click on the download it opens Ubuntu Software manager which tells me that the program is installed but when I put bibleanalyzer into the terminal I get
jacky@jacky-Aspire-6930G:~$ bibleanalyzer

************ Starting Bible Analyzer *************
0.59505200386 before aui import

Press Enter to close terminal

And then I am back where I started because the program is installed........

Hm, would it be as simple as running

mkdir ~/Documents/BibleAnalyzer

It could be it didn't install right- for downloaded .deb files I prefer to use dpkg rather than the software center- in a terminal run

sudo dpkg -i package_name

to install.

mkdir ~/Documents/BibleAnalyzer comes up as no such file or directory.
