Browse source 
* adjusts to CPU architecture by reading `uname -m`
* `wayland-native` option for Wayland flags
* `remove` option to delete downloaded files
* generates Desktop entry from template
* `--no-sandbox` flag when unprivileged usernamespaces are not available
* downloads various icon sizes to correct locations
  * uses reverse DNS notation so icon can be overridden by icon themes
* add `GenericName`, `Comment`, and `Keywords` to Desktop file
* add `SingleMainWindow` to tell DEs not to suggest opening a new window
* add `StartupWMClass` - probably not required but doesn't hurt either
* update accompanying README instructions
* remove previous example `.desktop` file

#### Linux Notes
If you're using a Linux device, a `.desktop` file is recommended for easy launching of Feishin.
We provide a small install script to download the latest `.AppImage`, make it executable, and also download the icons required by Desktop Environments. Finally, it generates a `.desktop` file to add Feishin to your Application Launcher.
Download the [latest release (AppImage)](https://github.com/jeffvli/feishin/releases) and [application icon](https://github.com/jeffvli/feishin/blob/development/resources/icon.png?raw=true) to your `~/applications/` folder. This folder may need to be created if it does not already exist.
Simply run the installer like this:
```sh
dir=/your/application/directory
curl 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jeffvli/feishin/refs/heads/development/install-feishin-appimage' | sh -s -- "$dir"
```
Rename the icon to `Feishin-linux-x86_64.png`.
The script also has an option to add launch arguments to run Feishin in native Wayland mode. Note that this is experimental in Electron and therefore not officially supported. If you want to use it, run this instead:
```sh
dir=/your/application/directory
curl 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jeffvli/feishin/refs/heads/development/install-feishin-appimage' | sh -s -- "$dir" wayland-native
```
Save the [example desktop file](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jeffvli/feishin/refs/heads/development/feishin.desktop) as `~/.local/share/applications/feishin.desktop`.
It also provides a simple uninstall routine, removing the downloaded files:
```sh
dir=/your/application/directory
curl 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jeffvli/feishin/refs/heads/development/install-feishin-appimage' | sh -s -- "$dir" remove
```
You will now see Feishin show up in your menu. The properties in the example desktop file may need to be modified to match your system.
The entry should show up in your Application Launcher immediately. If it does not, simply log out, wait 10 seconds, and log back in. Your Desktop Environment may alternatively provide a way to reload entries.
