SyntaxBomb - Indie Coders

I am aware of how to do it in Windows but no idea for MacOS and Linux!

Help appreciated.

For MacOS https://freemacsoft.net/liteicon/

Linux does not support icons embedded into the executable and are only supported indirectly by Linux distributions that support the freedesktop specifications.
Basically you place your images in one of the standard location set aside for pixmaps/icon and create a launcher/desktop entry file in another standard location set aside.

Instead of me going through the whole process here, just see the section on one way to do it from here (https://www.cerberus-x.com/community/threads/install-requirements-for-linux-includes-raspbery-pi.741/).

Hi,

as I understand it, the launcher is basically a text file describing the application (like Windows manifesto), presuming the launcher is the same as Desktop Entry File.
