How to install the bin file on Linux?

Hello,
Does anyone know how to install the realplayer.bin in my Linux pc? I have a eeePC, after I download the realplayer.bin to my document folder, I double click that realplayer.bin file, but nothing's happened. Can anyone advise me how to install the program, I am new to the Linux family!

The following should work
Code:
chmod +x somefile.bin
./somefile.bin
