Later I'll integrate this to proper docs:

Download release

Unzip

Find executable, named "VideoDuplicateFinder.gui"

Right click > "Open with"

Choose your terminal app, check "Always Open With"

Now your app is running

@matthewstrasiotto when I attempt to run this via terminal per your instructions to right-click, or by running sudo open -n at the terminal the app does not open, it just opens a new terminal window.

Do I need to install .NET supporting files in order for this to work?

Er you shouldnt need to install a dotnet runtime, but i do have one installed since ive used my mac to develop dotnet

theres no need for sudo, btw, and you don't need to call "open" if you're running it from term

From terminal, try just calling the executable (from its folder)

# from the folder with all the dlls and stuff
./VideoDuplicateFinder.gui 

# or
# /path/to/VideoDuplicateFinder.gui

I just banged this out on my phone, so check the spelling and stuff

You can try Installing a dotnet runtime but it shouldn't be necessary

@matthewstrasiotto have not had any luck getting this to work on two of my machines -- not sure what I'm doing wrong
