My grandson downloaded a trial copy of VMware for me from his Mac portable and put it on a flash drive which I have.
This 400 meg file is what I see when I look at the contents of the flash drive:
VMware-Workstation-Full-9.0.2-1031769.x86_64.txt
Can someone tell me how to use it assuming it is the right file? I also have a key to go with it but have not been
able to find any useful [to me] instructions
normally these are .bundle files which you simply execute with
"bash VMware-Workstation-Full-9.0.2-1031769.x86_64.bundle"
which starts a graphical installer
*how large* is this .txt file?
maybe someone renamed it, but extensions are pointless on Unix, so see above
Yes it's a large script file, why they tag the .txt on the end I dunno.

It looks like so:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
#
# VMware Installer Launcher
#
# This is the executable stub to check if the VMware Installer Service
# is installed and if so, launch it. If it is not installed, the
# attached payload is extracted, the VMIS is installed, and the VMIS
# is launched to install the bundle as normal.
# Architecture this bundle was built for (x86 or x64)
ARCH=x64
