title: How to run/execute an adobe AIR file on Linux (ec2/ubuntu) from command line only (no gui)
body: <p>Im trying to execute a .AIR file on a linux box (ubuntu) from the command line, and disregard the GUI.</p>
  
  <p>Here's the thing. About 6mo I was able to do this, but I forgot how I did it, and I'm left to figure out how it was done by looking at clues on the server.</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>I see the MainSimple.air file that I had originally used.</li>
  <li>I see that I somehow installed it into /opt/MainSimple/bin/MainSimple (which is now a binary file, not an air) </li>
  <li>I see my script file to run that file, and it successfully executes.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>--- runAir.sh ---</p>
  
  <pre><code>  #!/bin/sh
    export DISPLAY=:2
    /opt/MainSimple/bin/MainSimple &amp;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So my question is, now that I have a new/different air file... how do I get it to "install" or change/compile into a binary file like I did before?</p>
  
  <p>I know an .air file is just a zip file.. I unzipped it, and theirs no /bin directory in it.</p>
