Providing an AppImage would have, among others, these advantages:
Works for most Linux distributions (including Ubuntu, Fedora, openSUSE, CentOS, elementaryOS, Linux Mint, and others)
One app = one file = super simple for users: just download one AppImage file, make it executable, and run
No unpacking or installation necessary
No root needed
No system libraries changed
Just one format for all major distributions
Works out of the box, no installation of runtimes needed
Optional(!) desktop integration with appimaged
Binary delta updates, e.g., for continuous builds (only download the binary diff) using AppImageUpdate
Can GPG2-sign your AppImages (inside the file)

appimagedPing, is anything preventing this from being merged?
Pinging once more, now that 1.0 is there...
Ok. Thank you very much for this. Sorry it took so long for merging it.
Something seems to be broken with qt versions: https://travis-ci.org/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term/jobs/474627956
