Hello all,
Would it be possible to have somewhere on this forum a simple button that refers to the "latest stable version" with always the same name such as "qb64_lnx_stable", "qb64_osx_stable" and "qb64_win_stable" without any other numbering as well as a another simple button that links to the latest development version such as "qb64_lnx_dev", "qb64_osx_dev" and "qb64_win_dev" once again without any numbering.
This would allow external scripts to download releases like the one I did for QB64, InForm and vWATCH64 on Linux where the latest stable version was always in the same place and always with the same name without having to (as I have fact) to modify the script for each new version.
With github, the names and the places (the links) were changed for every new release.
That's why I ended up hosting the latest files on my own personal web server, which wasn't always up to date if I didn't follow the news every day.
If you can, I'll be happy to re-offer my multilingual (6 languages) install (and uninstall) bash script for qb64phoenix on Linux.
Looking forward.
TIA.
Cheers.
Fifi
