Frontend support
Hey, big fan of this app specifically the Proot version of Winlator as a lot of my older games run much better than the glibc forks.
The last thing to make it perfect would be to support front ends. I saw there is #1142 and #1248 marked as complete but the latest 11 beta does not have it. I also see #1536 that's open and hasn't been merged.
Will this ever gain the ability to export shortcuts to the front end? It seems like only this and frost are the last active, non-glibc Winlator apps and they are both the only ones without Frontend support so I end up picking between Frontend compatibility and better performance.
Thank you!

exporting the shortcuts wont be enough. the activity needs to be exported i believe. with some tweaks, it works.
the command line i use in beacon app:
am start -n com.winlator/.XServerDisplayActivity --ei container_id 1 --es shortcut_path {file_path}
@monxDIFIED did you make your own changes an compile an APK to make this work? Or is it just an elaborate shortcut that works? Any details would be appreciated, it would solve me a lot of headache 😃
yes. and i mean this. if not exported, the activity cant be called by other app.
