2. Try to run it

On Ubuntu 11.10 (64 bit) I had to install xulrunner manually first since it's 
no longer available.

- Download it here: 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/amd64/xulrunner-1.9.2/1.9.2.17+build3+nobin
only-0ubuntu1
- Install it: sudo dpkg -i 
xulrunner-1.9.2_1.9.2.17+build3+nobinonly-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb

then create a file "runpencil" in the same directory as pencil with the 
contents:

#!/bin/sh
PROGDIR=`dirname $0`
xulrunner $PROGDIR/application.ini

Then make itexecutable:

chmod +x runpencil

and run it:

./runpencil
