"AM" 6.0.3
Improved option -t
or template
- merged the 4 templates for downloading and installing AppImage packages (new sub-option "0");
- merged the 2 templates for the "on the fly" creation of AppImage packages (new sub-option "1");
- merged the 2 templates for downloading and installing tar/zip/7z archives (new sub-option "2");
- moved the template for custom Firefox profiles (new sub-option "3").
The sub-options were therefore reduced from 10 to 4.
For the new sub-options 0 and 1 two new templates will be used
- AM-SAMPLE-AppImage (select "0"):
- allows you to automatically select an update method, if a .zsync file is present that one will be used, otherwise the installed version will be compared with the new one present at the source;
- if available on github, will have a dedicated method for selecting the latest version;
- if you want to point to a site other than github, simply follow the instructions, and if you want to point to a fixed release, just add "
echo
" before the URL.
- AM-SAMPLE-Archive (select "1"):
- if available on github, will have a dedicated method for selecting the latest version;
- the extract and move functions occur in two steps, while you are in ./tmp and while you are exiting ./tmp;
- possibility to specify the original name of the binary file if it is different from that of the script;
- added customization of the .desktop file;
- if you don't add a URL to the icon, portable-linux-apps.github.io will be used as the source.
