Oh! Now I understand - I guessed AppImage was short for Apple Image,
something to do with Macs but Wikipedia tells me it is for distro
independent packaging for GNU/Linux :)
That sounds good, I'll try it out tomorrow when the fix I put in today
can be tested. [this was days ago, it didn't work ...]
Oh. I made this snapshot days ago. I will try to update it today. I have yet to make this automated. I have some new hardware that should allow me to do this.
To execute it you just download it. chmod +x. Then launch it like a binary.

What "dependencies"?
Evince, librubberband, portaudio, etc...
LilyPond, though not strictly speaking a
dependency will generally be wanted and packaging the version which
Denemo expects would avoid problems for beginners while not preventing
people using their own version. Do you have anything else in mind?
I thought we discussed having a skinny version that contained only denemo then a fat version containing all dependencies all the way down to libc and lilypond.
