When I unpacked the download none of the shell files were executable. I assume that I need to add executable permission to some of the executable files to run from home directory?

So interesting data. I did download from Mozilla.org and the tar ball has execute permissions when I list it. That was silly to not check the tar ball. I will unpack again and check it. My umask appears to be set properly. tf
