The best release of AppMan is here!!

AppMan v4.0.0 comes with the following features:

  • AppMan now is portable, ie you can use it wherever you want, also on a USB stick
  • New prompt that allows you to choose a destination directory for all your apps in your $HOME
  • New code, filename "appman-portable" (UPDATE 20230505: the name is "appman" again )
  • New installation process for all your applications, now more clear and simple
  • New "bash completion" usage
  • Now AppMan is also available as an AppImage #1
