Interesting. Are you planning on providing a good out-of-the-box experience for AppImages? Please let me know if you need ideas, inspiration, or help. Thanks! 👍

I primary wanted to see a proper icon for AppImages. They work as intended for my usage, I double click and the app starts. Icon (meta data) support would be great.

[rodlie]

btw, I also maintain qtfm, might need better integration there.

Please have a look at https://github.com/AppImage/libappimage which e.g., KDE uses to show metadata about AppImages right in the file manager.

Cool, will have a look and integrate icon and title (not more is needed on the desktop?) from appimage.

This integration is going to happen in qtfm, right? So I might want to send a pull request to make a qtfm AppImage, so that I can try it out easily :-)

[rodlie]

I will add it to qtfm as well, but note that I'm backed up with open issues in qtfm so it might take a while.

No hurries. Let me know if you need anything AppImage related.
