bdist_appimage¶
This command is available on Linux systems, to create an AppImage application bundle (a .AppImage file); bdist_appimage automates the process.
An AppImage is a downloadable file for Linux that contains an application and everything the application needs to run (e.g., libraries, icons, fonts, translations, etc.) that cannot be reasonably expected to be part of each target system.
Added in version 7.0.
