Dear TeXworks users,
for those of you running Linux I am happy to announce that I recently
included an AppImage binary in the list automatic builds. This is still
experimental, and it's only available for the development version at the
moment. But if all goes well an AppImage binary should also be available
for the next stable release.
I would be grateful if those interested in running the latest version of
TeXworks on Linux (with most of the latest libraries) would try the
AppImage (and, of course, report issues if there are any). The AppImage
is linked from the homepage
[https://tug.org/texworks/#Online_resources], the current direct link is
https://nightly.link/TeXworks/texworks/workflows/cd/main/TeXworks-AppImage.
The AppImage should work with glibc >= 2.28 (as required by the Qt6
library [https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/supported-platforms.html]), this
includes Debian >= 10, Ubuntu >= 18.10, Fedora >= 29, openSUSE >= 15.3, etc.
All the best for 2023,
Stefan
