Hi RaiMan,

Thank you for continuing to work on SikuliX and not abandoning the
product.

I was using Sikuli a few years back on Windows and I liked the software
and thought it was kinda fun to develop small scripts on. I even sent
you a question about some script I was working on and you replied
kindly.

Later I switched OS to Linux Ubuntu and I will continue being on this
OS.

I checked the installation instructions for SikuliX on Linux but that
was kind of long.

Please RaiMan, do you think you could make a more convenient way to
install on Linux? Some other software products have cool one-liners so
we can just use CURL to download a script which takes care of all the
installation automatically.

Your Sikuli fan

P. S. There is an absence of macro software on Linux. Windows has
AutoHotkey and such. Linux does not for some very strange reason
considering how development centric the Linux OS is.

I think you could have a cool niche here with image recognition and
perhaps expanding more into keyboard macros as well.
