Hello!

The quickest way:

  1. Rename the file 'nodebook' without an extension. So remove anything past 'nodebook' in the name. Open up your terminal and run the file directly like: ~/Downloads/nodebook help

A better way:

  1. Move the file to a folder that is in your PATH.
  2. Rename the file 'nodebook' without an extension. So remove anything past 'nodebook' in the name.
  3. Make sure it has the appropriate permissions. 
    chmod 755 /PATH/TO/FILE/nodebook
  4. Create an empty folder to store your new notebooks. Can be placed anywhere in your file system. Just remember/make note of the path. e.g. ~/path/to/notebooks
  5. Open up your terminal and run the program: 
    nodebook web ~/path/to/notebooks
