It looks like you should be all set from a default install.

Try opening a file from the command line:

brackets filename.js

Jim McQuarrie Launch Brackets and click on 'File' and then 'Install Command Line Shortcut'

Then you will be able to use 'brackets file.js' to open files or folders in brackets
