Phyllis,
Just a minor suggestion I forgot to mentione:
The file *README.appimag*e works fine to read with cat (cli), but I
experienced that usual dual mouse-click on it in a GUI file browser
(Gnome Files) can't open it, because is recognized to be of file type
Appimage (which it isn't).
I rather renamed it to *README_appimage.txt* or optionally just
*README_appimage* which both worked the usual gui way 😉

Terje,
Thank you for passing this information along. I will update the
README and the manual to include your methodology.

The README appimage file describes the CLI method to install
Cinelerra-GG
1) download AppImage file move from Download folder to your
preference
2) make it executable chmod u+x {AppImageFile name}
3) run it ./cinelerraGG.AppImpage
--------------------------------
Now I have also tried the /GUI method/ to download, Run And Integrate
Cinelerra AppImage with installed *AppImageLauncher*.
On openSUSE Leap 15.3 (and surely similar on other distros)
AppImageLauncher is integrated with Firefox as follows:
1) start download the AppImage file, and a widget popup in Firefox
with the option to open it with AppImageLauncher (instead of
Saving it)
2) At the end of the download a new popup asks to integrate it
with
your desktop system. OK
--------------------------------
(The AppImage installation directory is /home/user/Application by
default, but can be customized in the Launcher widget)
That's it. Both *Cin* and *Cin-multi* were installed this way,
automatic
integrated with icons and in the app-menue in Gnome,
see the attached screenshot AppImage.png and urls to articles for
detailed info below.
I have used *alacarte* to add the icon comment sub-text to
*Cin-multi*
for multiple bit version.the icon, as also mentioned in a previous
post
