John Verhaeg commented on JBDS-1382:
------------------------------------

And now I just realized that's wrong, too: I should be running the dev studio app that appears farther down in the directory. Sheesh!  We should create an alias to this that gets created directly in the Applications folder.

> After installation, I get the jbdevstudio folder, but nothing in it but other folders and a readme that talks about "clicking on the installed icon in your program menu or desktop" that doesn't exist.  Just browsing for something to launch, my first inclination was to look in the studio subfolder, and only after discovering there's nothing appropriate there, and knowing, as a developer for Teiid Designer, that dev studio is an Eclipse application, did I deduce that I must have to launch the eclipse application under the eclipse subfolder.  This definitely isn't intuitive, and especially wouldn't be for those new to dev studio and/or Eclipse.  I'd want to see an app icon directly in my Applications folder, not even within the jbdevstudio folder.
