Q. X-AppImage-Name

Open kuiperzone opened this issue 5 months ago • 3 comments

In the desktop file, can I set X-AppImage-Name to a reverse DNS name, such as "com.example.my-app"?

Or should I use a friendly name, such as "My Application"?

Do we even support this key? I can't remember ever seeing it. Grepping in libappimage and appimagetool yields no results.

According to the AppImage documentation you do..

https://docs.appimage.org/reference/desktop-integration.html

And here:

https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/issues/59

If you're not supporting these, it would be great if they were removed from the documentation.

What about X-AppImage-Arch?
