How do I open this program in Linux?

[anon1231823]

I read the readme and I don't see any information about how I actually execute this program on Linux? I downloaded the Ubuntu-x65.tar.gz but what do I do from here?

Hello.

1. Open console window (bash).

2. Make dir to extract files for archive (for instance ModbusTools in current user home folder):

$ mkdir ~/ModbusTools

3. Extract files into newly created dir:

$ tar -xvzf /<path>/<to>/Ubuntu-x64.tar.gz -C ~/ModbusTools

4. Install Qt library (for Debian/Ubuntu/Mint/other debian-family distro):

$ sudo apt install qtbase5-dev qttools5-dev

5. Go to previously created ModbusTools dir and run programs:

$ cd ~/ModbusTools
$ ./client
$ sudo ./server

Or you can build project from sources:
