support launching steam as steam-native #19

Closed ca1f closed 2 years ago

ca1f commented 2 years ago

from the looks of it, steam-acolyte launches steam on linux always as /usr/bin/steam and has no option for launching steam as /usr/bin/steam-native.

I could provide a PR for this functionality but I'm not exactly sure what would be the desired way to switch between these two methods of launching steam so I would like to use this ticket to discuss whenever A) it's desired to provide a way to switch between these two methods of launching steam and B) how to implement it.

Hey, you can currently use steam-acolyte --exe steam-native, but I want to improve support in the future so that it can be configured in a config file (and possibly even controlled using the GUI).

If you have any conceptions on how a UI to set the desired executable should look like, please bring them forth.

(This should also be better documented and made easier see #24).
