Rewriting installation scripts, with one less dependency
- Removed "
jq" dependency, from installation scripts, modules and the main CLI - Use of new installation scripts for AppImage packages and other standalone apps
- The new scripts will install application launchers no longer with the "AM-" suffix, but with the "-AM.desktop" extension, so you can list the launchers the way you want
- New installation scripts for "AM" will install launchers in /usr/local/share/applications by default rather than as an alternative to /usr/share/applications
NOTE: converting all installation scripts to the new template is still in progress.
Older installation scripts are still using the "AM-" suffix in .desktop files and .desktop files will still use /usr/local/share as an alternative to /usr/share. Keep an eye out for changes in the section https://github.com/ivan-hc/AM/commits/main
