Please add appimage or tar.gz/tar.xz package (which are distro independent) for linux users.

By the way, what's the difference between this and https://github.com/zcf0508/autocut? If possible, please also add linux package for that.

Thanks a lot.

This contains a Linux version packaged using GitHub Actions. I haven't tested it yet because I don't have the corresponding device.

Regarding autcut-client, I may not release a Linux version for now. If you are interested, you can try to clone the code on the Linux platform and manually packaging it to test it out. Pull requests are welcome.

Thanks for your work and I do appreciate it! However, one question, why's the linux pack much larger than those for windows and macos? Unpacking it takes about 4gb, which is really unexpected. Maybe one solution is to reduce some unused dependency files and pack into the distro-agnostic format of appimage, which supports compression and execution without decompression.

By the way, WSL on windows and lima on macos can help test linux programs easily. Hope this can help.
