Cursor command not working on Ubuntu

I have “installed” cursor in Ubuntu using the AppImage, in the setup process there is an option to install “cursor” command

it does not work

In the troubleshooting you have this:


You can open Cursor from the command line by running cursor in your terminal. If you’re missing the cursor command, you can

Open the command palette ⌘⇧P
Type install command
Select Install 'cursor' command (and optionally the code command too which will override VS Code’s code command)

this does not work, there is not such command as " Install ‘cursor’ command"

this is broken, has been broken for months. I would like to not have to retort to random fixes to make this basic thing work
