Suggestions to improve usability on GNU/Linux #13

Open marcelosmota opened 4 years ago

marcelosmota commented 4 years ago

Hi!

I have suggestions to improve PosteRazor's usability on GNU/Linux. Feel free to reject them.

It is a good idea rename the final executable's name from PosteRazor to posterazor. The GNU/Linux (and Unix-like) users will always search for lowercase commands to execute from command line.

There are files complying with AppStream metadata projetc[1] here[2]. You can see the install tree here[3]. Feel free to use or to ignore it.

There is a manpage here[4], using txt2man[5] system to built it. Feel free to use or to ignore it.

Thanks again for your work. Now, you can close this issue.

Regards, Marcelo S Mota

You can find this metadata in existing user packages: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/tree/packages/posterazor/trunk

I have examples of man pages (but are build in autotools not in cmake):

I have other examples for appstream if needed

@aportale just let me know
