It would be useful to have a --verbose option that would make the program print some information about what it's doing.

Currently jbinstall does not perform any checks on the provided archive.

• Try to verify if the archive actually contains a JetBrains product, e.g. by checking if ProgramName-X.Y.Z/bin/programname.sh exists.
• Refuse to extract the archive if there are any paths containing ../.

It could be useful to add an option that allows the program to detect if in /opt there's an older version of the program being installed, and remove it.

Currently jbinstall supports only installing from an already-downloaded file. It would be immensely useful if the user could just write the program name and have jbinstall download it itself from JetBrains.

Think something like:

$ jbinstall --download pycharm-community
