Bill-

Yes, you are correct of course. Somehow when I changed the "../wsjtx-2.0.0"
to "../wsjtx-2.2.2" the "wsjtx-2.2.2" got cut off! It's there in my
document I wrote, so I think it was a copy/paste error.

Question: wsjt-x has brought ham radio back to life for me and I want to
give back. I'm a very rusty coder, so that's probably out. I'm a good
document writer. I also want to learn Linux packaging and I saw someone ask
about Flatpaks.

My question is, which do you think would be the best/first package for me
to do for wsjt-x? Flatpak, snap, or appimage? Here's a comparison:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/866511/what-are-the-differences-between-snaps-appimage-flatpak-and-others

Also, is there any place else I could lend a hand?

Thanks!
