make command failing on Linux

[travis-g]

Running make on Linux results in the following:

rm: cannot remove ‘/tmp/slate.nw’: Operation not permitted
Makefile:7: recipe for target 'run' failed
make: *** [run] Error 1

..and sudo make results in:

zip -rq /tmp/slate.nw *
`which nw` /tmp/slate.nw
which: no nw in ($PATH)
/bin/sh: /tmp/slate.nw: Permission denied
Makefile:7: recipe for target 'run' failed
make: *** [run] Error 126

Error was brought up in issue #73 after it was closed, but seemingly wasn't fixed.

the node-webkit exectuable isn't in your $PATH

Two problems actually.

You ran make as sudo so now /tmp/slate.nw is owned by root.

$ sudo rm /tmp/slate.nw
$ which nw

which nw should return a path.

Check this out https://www.exponential.io/blog/install-node-webkit-on-ubuntu-linux

Alternatively you could run this command from the slate directory (where the package.json is):

$ /path/to/node-webkit/nw .

This could use some documentation.
