If you would like to install the useful command line tool for THETA API developed by Oppkey used in articles like Using BASH Scripts To Easily Test THETAs and Saving HDR _filter Setting to mySetting, please go to:
https://github.com/theta360developers/webapi/releases/tag/v0.1.1-alpha
The registration and the command line tool are free. Binaries are available for Linux, Windows, Mac and Raspberry Pi. Or you can compile the code yourself!

- I tried running it from the command line again. This time, I got the warning:

- I clicked Open.
- I tried running ./theta app –version again. It responded with 0.1.1-alpha. That’s the anticipated response; it works!
