0.4.0 LTS

[MasterJayanX]

This will be the first LTS (Long Term Support) release, which will have support until January 2027.

Changelog

• pmfow can now install or uninstall multiple applications with a single command. For example: pmfow install chromium firefox vlc is now a valid command.
• The updater can now check for LTS releases.
• Added flags to make wget's output more "user-friendly".
• Other minor changes that you can find here.
• Updated app repositories to version 45.

Installation

Download the file named pmfow_version_win32.exe or pmfow_version_win64.exe and install it. The other 2 files (pmfow32.exe and pmfow64.exe) are just the standalone pmfow executables for 32 and 64 bit respectively, but without the necessary dependencies (these are used by the pmfow-updater tool).

Updating

There are two ways of updating pmfow to this version:

1. Using pmfow-updater

You can update pmfow to the latest version by running pmfow update and then pmfow-updater in a terminal window. This is the most straight-forward way of doing it.

2. Manually updating

You can also update pmfow by manually downloading the standalone pmfow executable (pmfow32.exe or pmfow64.exe) and overwriting the old executable file (you might have to rename the new file to pmfow.exe, though).
