[FEAT] Add AM package manager.

[Samueru-sama]

AM is a package manager for appimages and other portable applications.

https://github.com/ivan-hc/AM

AM prints the number of packages installed by running am -f --less.

Does ls /opt/*/AM-updater | wc -l correctly print the number of packages installed by AM?

[Samueru-sama]

ls /opt/*/AM-updater | wc -l

Maybe (EDIT: Better said no idea since I haven't test it that), but if it works it will only work when AM is used as AM, it also has a portable mode (AppMan) which makes it a bit more complicated.

You can get the packages directory by reading the path in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/appman/appman-config or ~/.config/appman/appman-config and then to get the number of packages it does this:

cd /path/to/packages/dir &&
find . -type f -name 'remove' 2>/dev/null | sed -r 's|/[^/]+$||' | sort | uniq | wc -l

And that prints the total number of packages installed. That is what AM itself does.

Can you paste the content of $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/appman/appman-config here?

[CarterLi]

I installed AM myself. The file $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/appman/appman-config doesn't exist

Just woke up.

Can you paste the content of $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/appman/appman-config here?

It just contains this .local/opt (In my case I have the packages in $HOME/.local/opt).

I installed AM myself. The file $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/appman/appman-config doesn't exist

You would need to run am with this alias alias am=/opt/am/appman (or just directly run the script in that path, also without sudo btw) and that should be enough for it to ask for the path to generate the config file.

Thanks for adding AM support! I just tested fastfetch-git, it does detect the packages in /opt/am/ but doesn't detect the appman packages, and I just noticed that will be a bit harder to implement because in this case am is an alias to a script that isn't in PATH lol.
