In order to create the images, you will need:
- Some coreutils implementation
- [dwarfs](https://github.com/mhx/dwarfs), specifically `mkdwarfs`
- This may in turn require further dependencies, and specifically relies on the presence of FUSE for mounting images.
- `dwarfsck` and `dwarfsextract` also allow for additional functionality
- Squashfs-tools for AppImage functionality
- `dwarfsck` and `dwarfsextract` also allow for converting existing dwarfs images and updating the header of existing appdwarfs
- squashfs-tools for AppImage conversion
- `zstd` for creating or running `zzexe` files
If you only wish to run an existing appdwarf, only `dwarfs` is needed in PATH.

## `zzexe`
`zzexe` is a small tool similar to `gzexe` that instead uses zstd to compress single applications.
I've included it because it has a similar goal to `appdwarf` on the whole, just on a smaller scale.
I wrote it in part because I felt that `gzexe` was overly complicated, as I used to
just use a lightly modified version of it that replaces `gzip` with `zstd`,
and to add a couple additional features.

couple additional features:
It supports adding in a prefix command to the file using the `-p` options e.g.
`zzexe -p wine some.exe` will generate a compressed file that will then run the exe.
It also automatically appends the extension of the source file to the temporary file

- automatically appends the extension of the source file to the temporary file
created when ran since some programs care about that, such as an emulator only
running games of an expected file extension.
