Also, a bug: You must run install.sh from the directory that hbcxmlgen.sh is in. Otherwise:
 +
<pre>
 +
mcpancakes@desktop:/$ /usbhdd/Programming/hbcxmlgen/install.sh -i
 +
Copying to /usr/bin/hbcxmlgen ...
 +
[sudo] password for mcpancakes:
 +
cp: cannot stat `hbcxmlgen.sh': No such file or directory
 +
Installed!
 +
mcpancakes@desktop:/$
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
It won't really be installed. They come together in the same archive anyway, and are extracted to the same place, so just take the time to <code>cd</code> to the directed you unpacked it in and run <code>./install.sh</code> from there.
