Registering AppImage Files as a desktop app
How can I register an .appimage file (specifically, the tiled map editor found here) as a desktop app? (Like firefox -- I can launch it by typing 'Firefox' into search rather than opening up a console and typing /path/to/directory/firefox.ext)
kde appimage

Place the executable file in youPATHin say/usr/binand you should be able to launch it like firefox...

Is there a way to put a 'shortcut' to the file in my PATH? I don't want to move it there.

Never mind, I just made a bash script that launches it and stuck that in ~/bin. Thanks for your help, even though you didn't actually answer the question :P

According to appimagekit, the proper method is to use appimaged for .AppImage file registration.
For 64-bit systems:
wget "https://github.com/AppImage/appimaged/releases/download/continuous/appimaged-x86_64.AppImage"
chmod +x appimaged-x86_64.AppImage
./appimaged-x86_64.AppImage --install
The binary will copy itself to /home/ubuntu/.local/bin/appimaged and then delete the downloaded copy upon install. Then you must logout and back in.
At time of reading, it will monitor and register the following locations:
~/Downloads
~/.local/bin
~/bin
/Applications
/isodevice/Applications
/isofrom/Applications
/run/archiso/img_dev/Applications
/opt
/usr/local/bin
To show in the menu, this assumes you've placed a desktop file in the correct location inside your .AppImage file, usually /usr/share/applications/<myproject>.desktop.
If you search in the application tray, you should find your application shortly. The daemon should also register any application-specific file associations assuming the mime xml is also bundled, usually /usr/share/mime/packages/<myproject>.xml. If the icon does not appear correctly, you may have to logout and back in a second time. This can happen if the icon was incorrectly cached while testing out images.

On my system, Ubuntu 14.04, the systemctl steps did not work properly. You should ask the project team how best to do this. The service seems like it's intended to be run in user-space by design, so the system-wide installation technique does not seem to be obvious. Perhaps you would be happy with the appimage located permanently somewhere (e.g./opt/bin/appimagedwith a login script for all users in/etc/xdg/autostart/appimaged.desktop, but one which uses the--no-installswitch.

Then place digicam in (e.g.)/opt/bin/digicamand the daemon should find it as it will match the second-to-last search location mentioned above.
