```
./shark-clipper-linux-x64-latest.bin
```
#### Using the Mac Prebuilt Binary
You will need to set execute permissions on the Mac prebuilt binary, e.g.:
```
chmod +x shark-clipper-macos-x64-latest.bin
```

Mac requires an additional security step to run the prebuilt binary.
This step needs to be done every time a new binary is downloaded and run for the first time.

1) Run the binary as any normal program:
```
./shark-clipper-macos-x64-latest.bin
```

2) A popup may appear noting that the file cannot be opened because Apple cannot chcck it for malicious software, click "OK" to close.

3) Open System Settings and navigate to the "Privacy & Security" tab.

4) Scroll down until arriving at the "Security" section where a message should appear stating that shark-clipper.bin was blocked because it is not from an identified developer. Click the "Allow Anyway" button. You may be required to provide a password.

5) Return to the terminal and re-run the binary:
```
./shark-clipper-macos-x64-latest.bin
```

6) A popup may appear again warning about running the file. This time click the "Open" button. To program should now proceed.

After following these steps when first running a new binary, you will be able to run the binary as any normal program without warnings:
```
./shark-clipper-macos-x64-latest.bin
```
