           App Runner is a small open source utility that makes it very easy to run any type of program/executable/script on any GNOME distro/OS: Debian / Ubuntu / Super OS /etc No need to mark the file as "executable" before running it Run any executable/script that the host OS supports: ELF , BASH, Python, Perl... ( .bin .sh .run .py , etc...) Can run any program as a normal user, or as the root user (see images) Works both with GUI (graphical) programs and CLI (command line) programs Automatically expires the root session (on systems with sudo ) before running any program (to increase security) Automatically removes the "executable flag" after running the file (if App Runner added it)  Download Homepage
