Use command line to run Veetle linux application

Could someone advise me what the complete command line is to run "sh veetle-0.9.17-linux-install.sh".

I've opened command line and used command line hylton@hylton-laptop:~$ run sh veetle-0.9.17-linux-install.sh (not working) and hylton@hylton-laptop:~$ sh veetle-0.9.17-linux-install.sh (not working).

I guess I am using the command line. Any help?

It depends where you placed the veetle file. If you downloaded it to your desktop, run cd Desktop and then run the sh.

EDIT:The veetle script is already an executable. Do not run as root, veetle recommends against it and it will add complications later. (This happened to me)

Sh is needed to run the command.

Try ./veetle-0.9.17-linux-install.sh with a dot slash ./ at the beginning, or possibly sudo ./veetle-0.9.17-linux-install.sh since things are generally installed as root. (Do not put 'run' or 'sh' at the beginning. That is not needed.) You might need to do chmod a+x veetle-0.9.17-linux-install.sh first if it's not already executable.
