To install XCTU (Windows version) on Linux

This is a good tutorial about this.. https://github.com/TauLabs/TauLabs/wiki/Xbee-Programming-on-Linux

However, this is no longer needed because XBee has a Linux version now :D

Anyway, I post this because I think it could help to install other similar windows-based software which needs to connect with usb (serial) ports.
