I am currently using ubuntu 14.0.4 LTS. I just installed it and I searched up by pressing Alt+F2 I am able to search the computer for programs / files / folders but somehow I installed webstorm and it's not searchable (Maybe because the program was only extracted instead of a real installation such as FileZilla which is already available to be searched when I typed in FileZilla)

Is there a way I can add webstorm into the search? (not even sure which tags I should add this into)

  • when I download as linux it's just a .tag.az file by extracting it I use terminal to go into the webstorm/bin/webstom.sh I followed a post in here to run something like chmod -x webstorm.sh then ./webstorm.sh to start the program

If you want to be able to open this program, when searching it with the dash, it is advisable to add a desktop launcher to it as described here:
