SMILExtract -h: command not found about opensmile HOT 4 CLOSED

Ok, this worked. Thank you so much for the help.

You do not necessarily need to add the SMILExtract directory to your PATH. Are you sure the build succeeded and there is a SMILExtract binary in build/progsrc/smilextract?

Instead of building openSMILE yourself, you might also want to just use the prebuilt binaries from the Releases page on GitHub.

I can see the executable inside the directory.

I am trying this way now. I downloaded the tar file and just navigating to the directory, I still can't run SMILExtract -h (command not found). I thought I might need to do something first, and by reading the readme I see that it mentions to run bash build.sh : but there is no such directory.
I am really sorry for all these questions, I must sound very naive here.

You may need to specify the current directory or full path when invoking SMILExtract in the shell: ./SMILExtract
