'''Troubleshooting:'''
* If you get permission denied on Linux/Mac:
*# Open a terminal. (In MacOS, search 'Terminal' in Spotlight.)
*# Type <code>chmod +x </code>, ''with a space at the end''. Don't press enter yet.
*# Drag the <tt>unpack.sh</tt> (Linux) or <tt>unpack.command</tt> (Mac) file onto the terminal to paste its path.
*# Hit enter. If you did it correctly, the terminal won't show any message but the permission error should be gone.
*# Repeat for <tt>pack.sh</tt> (Linux) or <tt>pack.command</tt> (Mac).
