We have the following .desktop
file described in our wiki. Consider to ship this as TerasologyLauncher.desktop
in the launcher directory for Linux. Some distributions, e.g., Ubuntu, now let you start the launcher by double-clicking the file.
This was originally provided by @BenjaminAmos.

Remaining todo is the .desktop
file for linux.
At the moment, this is not so easy. In the future, especially with #520 it should come more or less for free.
Currently all packages mostly contain the same files, especially
.exe
are present also in MacOS and *nix packages.The bundled files should be specific to the target platform to avoid confusion when extracting and starting the launcher.
Closes #387
