Chitubox_install_script

This script will install chitubox (with icons and .desktop link).

This is intended to be used on Ubuntu 20.04, Pop!_OS 20.04 and Solus 4.

It may work on other distros, please let me know and I'll update this readme.

What it does

• Deploys Chitubox with your other apps (in /usr/bin)
• Creates a Wrapper-Script to use the included Libraries
• Creates a .desktop file, so you can access Chitubox from Gnome, like any other app
• Deploys the icon, required for the above .desktop link
• Creates file association for .chitubox files (chitubox project file format)

Instructions

2. Download the linux version 1.8.1 of Chitubox from https://www.chitubox.com/download.html (you will need to create a Chitubox account)
3. Place the downloaded tar.gz in the same directory as the install script
4. Run the install script (root access will be required). If required, add exec permission with chmod +x. Note: You may have to restart your session for the icon to be properly displayed in gnome
