chocolatey package #213

Closed honeyspoon closed 5 years ago

honeyspoon commented 5 years ago

We should make a chocolatey package for easy installation.

It doesn't look complicated.

I made a manifest for scoop: bugn.json that maybe could go into the extras bucket of scoop. I would like to add #Include CustomFuctions.ahk in main.ahk to have persistent send and run functions after updating bug.n through scoop. Also a sha256sum text file with the releases. I'll take a look at making it for chocolatey but scoop is just so much more interesting and easier.

Had never heard of scoop before today. Seems like an older and better package manager than chocolatey. I wonder why it never took off.

Anyway, scoop extras just merged your json. We should add the scoop installation instructions to the readme.

@hnspn I've created a pull request adding it to the README with instructions. Also, a couple of modifications to allow for more portability when updating. particularly scoop allows persistent configuration files from the source code so we could include a file to keep custom Run and Send functions for hotkeys.
