Version 1.7.0

Although tarstall hasn't seen an update in nearly 2 years, I still actively use it daily, so I still do work on it! After getting myself to focus a good bit more on it, I'm happy to finally announce tarstall 1.7.0!

New User-Facing Features:

• --install, --dirinstall, and --gitinstall have all been merged into one --install parameter.
• You can now install archives directly as a URL pointing to one.
• Remote program updating now supports any archive type, rather than just .tar.gz
• Arguments all now have a shorthand form, a long form, and a -'less form (for example, tarstall -i package.tar.gz, tarstall --install package.tar.gz, and tarstall install package.tar.gz are all valid now).
• You can now specify the name of a program at install time using the -n/(--)name option
• The -v flag now enables verbosity for that current run of tarstall, rather than enabling/disabling verbosity.

Internal Changes:

• .desktop files are now stored in ~/.local/share/applications/tarstall to allow for recovering .desktop files during a database repair and to prevent any conflicts with other .desktop files.
• The version file has been deprecated and a new version.json is now used for version checking. This was mainly done so future features (such as potentially a changelog) can be stored in the file without spending major amounts of effort to parse things out.
• Split some of tarstall's files to keep code organized.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a bug where some systems that don't include ~/.config will fail to install tarstall.
• Fixed some instances where two progress bars would be displayed instead of one
• Other bug fixes.

Installer Changes:

• The installer now uses a progress bar and also indicates what it's currently doing without verbose printing.
• The installer now installs rsync if not found on the user's system.
