Using AppImage packages
An AppImage is a universal software package format valid for all common Linux distributions. Just download the LenMus appimage file, make it executable, and run it! No need to install. You can run LenMus anywhere including live disks.
See this YouTube video.
How to use the AppImage
- Download the AppImage file.
- Make it executable. By default, the downloaded AppImage file won’t have
the execution permission. You’ll have to change that permission. You
don’t need root privileges. Two methods for this:
- Run it. Either:
- If you are going to use the program regularly, create a shortcut in the menu or on the desktop. It is more practical!
