Re: Tablesmith using appimage


 

I could actually see a command line version being useful. But cross platform function would be very useful, IMHO.

But my use case isn't actually normal! :)

I use TableSmith to generate rumors and fluff for my LARP, and a CL version may be able to let me automate that. Especially if it could run on a website.

One of my projects is to get my management system up onto a website... :)

If I converted TS to .NET Core (which would be trivial), I could run the engine pretty much anywhere - Linux, iOS, Windows, Android, or Mac. I can't create a universal UI, though. Deployment would also be platform-specific.

For desktop, I've been pondering a command-line version but I'm guessing most people would be turned off if there wasn't a graphical frontend.

I've had good luck with CrossOver supporting Windows applications,?in general. It can be a bit hit and miss sometimes, but it has gotten better in the last 10 years or so. MUCH better. Especially with a lot of developing starting to become OS-agnostic. Build once, use it everywhere...

Sigh. At least I have an old Windows machine for things like this.

If you're looking to run TS on Linux...

I've had very good results using Codeweavers CrossOver to run TS5.1 on Linux. Very stable on CrossOver.

TS5.2 WON'T run on CrossOver, the .Net requirement is not able to be gotten around, and .Net3.0, which is built into Windows, is a requirement for all leter versions on .Net.

You may have similar?results on Mac, but I haven't tried it.

I'd never heard of AppImage until now, but from what I can see I'd have to rewrite TS to run on Linux before using this. It's not multi-platform in the "Windows/Mac/Linux" sense but cross-platform for Linux distributions.

Multi-platform desktop is something I've considered but mobile has priority?over that.

Has anyone tried to build an appimage version.? I am not a programmer, but it looks promising from a working on different platforms perspective.
