I don't know if I'm being clear. Take the following scenario:
You have downloaded a .tar.gz compressed program, you unpack it, and it runs right from there. It's not source code, just an application that doesn't need an installation to run.
Let's say I want this application (let's call it ProgramZ) to run with a terminal command programz
(or Alt+F2, whatever, ) from any directory in my Linux box.
Is that even possible? Do I have to copy the executable to /bin? If so, is that enough? If not, how do I properly do it without risking my system's stability?
Thanks!
