installing rubymine on ubuntu

I'm new to ubuntu, and installed rubymine as they say on site, after installation I didn't find any app shortcut or new files, so for now I'm running the using the same script I wrote to install it, and I really don't like it, the files are in my downloads folder.

What to do?

May have changed in newer versions of RubyMine, but on RubyMine 5.4 on Ubuntu 12.10, I found it under "Tools | Create Command Line Launcher" (Tools, instead of under File). Wouldn't have found it at all if not for Oleg's suggestion, though, thanks!

The easiest way to reach this is to launch File | Create Launcher command. It will register mine command for launching RubyMine. However you can do this manually: Once you've unpacked RubyMine you can easily create symbolic link using the following command: sudo ln -s $path_to_installation/bin/rubymine.sh /usr/local/bin/mine. After executing this command it you'll be able to launch RubyMine using mine command.

This is a better question for https://unix.stackexchange.com/ but usually you simply want to install to /usr/local/bin so it will become a program that can be run from anywhere on the computer.
