Support "doas" as an alternative for "sudo", plus other changes...

Now "AM" can use "doas" as alternative to "sudo".

Application list improvements

Now lists can contain more details by default and even more keywords.

Istantanea_2024-08-12_02-15-23

this change is useful to improve "categories" on our catalog, https://portable-linux-apps.github.io

Among these info we can add also whether if an application is Official or Unofficial.

Categories for the catalogue

Thanks to the am2pla-site script and the x86_64-apps list improved, now it is easier to add and improve categories on the webasite.

Here are all new pages added to https://portable-linux-apps.github.io from this repository:

even more categories will be added in future if you ask for them.

You can help us improving the website's pages by adding more information at x86_64-apps

Other changes

  • refactoring of the "database.am" module
  • fix a bug in -a about sizes of installed libraries
  • options -l and -q will use fold -sw 81 to prevent cutting words in long descriptions
  • removed the helpers "adb" and "fastboot" (for "platform-tools") and "npm" (for "node").

"AM" database statistics

We can divide the installation scripts into "unique programs" (AppImage and other portable formats), "helpers" (keywords to facilitate the installation of metapackages, such as unique programs) and "launchers".

Until today, August 12, 2024, we have 2196 installation sctipts for the x86_64 architecture:

  • 1923 unique AppImages
  • 197 standalone programs and command line utilities
  • 40 helpers for "kdegames"
  • 27 helpers for "kdeutils"
  • 9 launchers (ffwa, FireFox WebApps, or profiles)

Thanks to @Samueru-sama for the "doas" support and for helping me with the application's list!
