It did NOT give any error message and exactly as you guessed,
strangely, just sat there and did nothing. Now I'm installing it again
and here's the procedure:
1. I input "sh installation.sh" // (Installation begins, everything
seems fine)
2. It asks if I want to install symbolic links to a directory in my
path. I choose Yes (/user/local/bin).
3. Installation in progress -- takes a while (11% ... 90%... done!)
4. The icon appears on the desktop AND when I double-click it, nothing
happens!
Strange! Isn't it? I mean if there is something extra needed, why it's
not included with the CD itself and yet there's not even any instructions.
On the one hand, The Longman did just as I described, and on the other
hand, Oxford software just complained as follow (right in the terminal):
(red hat) probably already has them installed and so adding them isnt
necessary unless you build it for multiple linux distrobutions

Please try to answer linux-like BELOW the previous post. Otherwise it is
very hard to follow the progress of the discussion.
In regard to your problem:
Can you find out what the icon on your desktop is supposed to do? In KDE
You would simply right click on the icon and choose "properties" and
then see, which command is (meant to be) executed.
I assume, gnome will handle this similarly.
After you got this, open a terminal and type the exact command there.
My hope is that the resulting error message might shed some light on the
cause of your problem.
Also it could possibly reveal whether your software is meant to be used
with Wine, which is a software-layer that vendors and users frequently
use to use their windows applications on Linux.
kind regards
Eberhard
