INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
===============================================================================

  Linux Installation Instructions
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1. Unpack the @@product_full@@ distribution archive that you downloaded to
     where you wish to install the program. We will refer to this destination
     location as your {installation home} below.

  2. Open a console and cd into "{installation home}/bin" and type:

       ./@@script_name@@

     to start the application.

  3. [OPTIONAL] Add the "{installation home}/bin" to your PATH environmental
     variable so that you may start @@product_full@@ from any directory.

  4. [OPTIONAL] To adjust the value of JVM heap size open @@product@@.vmoptions
     (@@product@@64.vmoptions for 64-bit JDK), and modify the -Xms and -Xmx parameters.


  [OPTIONAL] Changing location of "config" and "system" directory
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  By default @@product_full@@ stores all your settings under ~/.@@system_selector@@/config directory
  and stores data cache under ~/.@@system_selector@@/system directory.
  If you want to change these settings,

  1. Open a console and cd into "{installation home}/bin"

  2. Open file "idea.properties" in an editor. You should find strings like

     idea.system.path=~/.@@settings_dir@@/system

     and

     idea.config.path=~/.@@settings_dir@@/config

     and change them.

  3. Note that we recommend to store data cache ("system" directory) at a disk 
     with at least 1G bytes free space




Enjoy!
