How the heck do I use .sh files? I downloaded a .sh file which is supposed to be used to install the little app, but I have no clue how to use it.. I've looked at google and on here, but no such luck...

A .sh is a shell script. Change the permissions on it to make it executable with 'chmod +x foo.sh', then run it './foo.sh'
