 Extract the content of an AppImage :
+<code bash>
 ./your.AppImage --appimage-extract
+#And copy to somewhere sensible
+sudo cp squashfs-root/myapp.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/
+</code>
 This is useful if you want to get the Icon.
 [[https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/releases|Link to AppImage Daemon]] //This Daemon scans well known places for appimages and creates menu entries and extracts icons//
+To run an AppImage just make it executable :
+<code bash>
+$ chmod +x /path/to/example.AppImage
+$ ./example.AppImage
+</code>
+Some AppImages support:
+<code bash>
+./MyApp.AppImage --install
+</code>
+This automatically:
+  * Creates a .desktop file
+  * Extracts the icon
+  * Registers everything correctly
+If it works, this is the cleanest solution. If not, manual extraction remains the most reliable path.
