RUNZis a "pseudo-new" way to run (and install) software on Linux (only Ubuntu and Super OS supported at the moment, but I plan to support as many Linux distros as possible). Think of it as a something similar to windows .exe files. (maybe even more similar to .dmg files for the Mac). The RUNZ framework should be included in the next version of Super OS (SP1).
Features:
- Easy way to run apps
- works on GNOME, KDE, and most recent Linux distros
- Works for all users, even if they don’t have root powers: no need to know the root password or use "sudo" to run .runz files.
- Safe: All files ask if the users really wants to launch the file, also, everything runs as a regular user (non-root), making it safer
- Support for Portable Apps: just create a folder named "runz" in the same location of your .runz file (see images bellow) , and if your .runz file is a portable app, it will save all it’s settings to the "runz" folder
- Easy way to install SuperDebs
