Title: CrossOver Linux
Post by: MacDaddy121 on May 20, 2007, 02:43:39 PM
I tried to download CrossOver Linux but when i downloaded it and ran the program from Firefox's downloads window i got this:
Could not open the file /tmp/install-crossover-standard-demo-6.1.0.sh.
gedit has not been able to detect the character coding.
Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file.
Select a character coding from the menu and try again
I have tried re-installing it and i dont know what to do. I checked the sites faqs but didnt find anything. what can i do?

You need to right-click the link and "Save file as", then you can run the file from a shell window afterwards.
