chmod +x helix-*.AppImage # change permission for executable mode chmod +x helix-*.AppImage # change permission for executable mode
./helix-*.AppImage # run helix ./helix-*.AppImage # run helix
``` ```
You can optionally [add the `.desktop` file](./building-from-source.md#configure-the-desktop-shortcut). Helix must be installed in `PATH` with the name `hx`. For example:
```sh
mkdir -p "$HOME/.local/bin"
mv helix-*.AppImage "$HOME/.local/bin/hx"
```
and make sure `~/.local/bin` is in your `PATH`.
