title: Install Navicat on Linux Ubuntu 12.04
body: <p>How do I install Navicat on Ubuntu Desktop 12.04?</p>
  
  <p>I have just configured a new Ubuntu 12.04. Because I'm not so familiar with the command line, I prefer to use Ubuntu Desktop so that I can have a GUI. Now I need to install a front-end to connect with MySQL.</p>
  
  <p>I prefer to use Navicat in a MAC environment, so I was hoping to install Navicat on the Ubuntu machine. I downloaded a Linux copy of Navicat for MySQL from here:</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://www.navicat.com/download/navicat-for-mysql" rel="nofollow">http://www.navicat.com/download/navicat-for-mysql</a></p>
  
  <p>The problem I am having is that I don't know how to install the program after it has been downloaded. There is a navicat.exe file in the navicat folder, but that seems to be for a DOS/Windows environment.</p>
  
  <p>I just can't figure out how to install Navicat onto Ubuntu Desktop 12.04. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.</p>
