Please add support .bin files lauch

[imb1r0k]

Please add lauch .bin files in your OS. This OS is very interesting, so, i want use about apps compiled in .bin file. If you want make it - this will be a big step forward compared to с M5 Launcher!

M5 Launcher is more like multi boot, being a pre boot environment and flashing firmware. It's like a firmware flasher that runs before the main app.
Tactility is more like an actual OS (like android), which means it loads and runs apps, retains state and is basically just something fundementally different from M5Launcher.
With some trial and error you can flash tactility from M5Launcher, but Tactility and M5Launcher are somthing fundementally different.

not sure you can actually run .bin files without flashing (also i wonder how m5launcher flashes binaries without destroying itself)

how? faq said it's impossible

@anotherdoesnm Flashing is technically possible from M5 Launcher, but I haven't tried it myself. The main issue supposedly is that the /system and /data partitions won't mount. This means that a bunch of assets won't load and Tactility can't save settings for any apps unless there's an SD card present.

So it might sort of work somewhat.

I recently moved a lot of assets from PNG files in /system into the main firmware's icon font(s). This means that at least the Tactility launcher screen, the top bar and app icons will now properly show icons when started from M5 Launcher.
Before, these wouldn't show up with M5 Launcher due that partition not mounting.

unless there's an SD card present.

I think i'll have sdcard because M5Launcher and other firmwares store info on it (Planned to buy T-Deck Plus)

Upd: my t-deck are shipped to me now! So i can try Tactility (and maybe making some apps because i need to practice C++ skills)
Maybe can look at app wishlist
