How to install Moneydance on Linux
First, you can download the linux x86 installer with or without java from www.moneydance.com/other.
After the download is finished, double-click the moneydance_linux_x86.sh (moneydance_linux_x86wj.sh with java) file or run "./moneydance_linux_x86.sh" (again, "./moneydance_linux_x86wj.sh" for the version with java) from the command line, in the same directory as the downloaded file.
The installer without java will ensure that java is already installed on your system, and if not, download it before installing Moneydance. Note that the process for the installer to locate and download java can take a little while so you may be better off downloading the installer that includes java.
