using a install.sh for installation

[ghost]

Describe the request

As for IDE 1.8.9, it has a install.sh but 2.0 doesn't

Describe the current behavior

This is more of a question than an issue, but... is there a reason why for arduino-ide does not contain a install.sh file. The reason why i asked because when you download the zip file, you would need to open a terminal and run ./arduino-ide and the terminal needs to be open just to keep the IDE open.

Arduino IDE version

2.0.0

Operating system

Linux

Operating system version

Ubuntu

Additional context

Hi @benlumia007. Thanks for taking the time to submit an issue.

when you download the zip file, you would need to open a terminal and run ./arduino-ide and the terminal needs to be open just to keep the IDE open.

I see we have another report about this at #690.

It is best to have only a single issue per subject so we can consolidate all relevant discussion to one place, so I'll go ahead and close this in favor of the other.

If you end up with additional information to share, feel free to comment in the other thread.
