Make the file executable with the proper execute permissions either from the GUI of the Desktop Environment used (link to the file) or from a terminal window. Make sure you are already in the directory containing the appimage:
Using AppImage means you can't have the installation folder and work on the files. To unpack the AppImage and get its structure in folders and files see \nameref{sub:managing_appimage} To create, edit and manage appimages see \nameref{sub:built_appimage_scratch}.
+\subsection{AppImage with Standard Shortcuts}
+\label{sec:appimage_standard_shortcuts}
+
+In video editing it is important to learn how to use shortcuts to speed up your work. \CGG{} uses shortcuts different from those considered standard in both the Linux world and video editing. For example, \texttt{"s"} is used instead of \texttt{Ctrl+S}, \texttt{"q"} instead of \texttt{Ctrl+Q}, and even the classic editing keys \texttt{J, K, L} are different.
+In addition, in \CGG{} the keys are fixed and not customizable. A new user may have a hard time getting used to a new combination of shortcuts. To make it a little easier, an appimage containing a patch that makes use of some of the more frequently used classic key combinations is available. It can be downloaded \href{https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/images/CinGG-20230930-alternative_shortcuts.AppImage}{here} (note that the file contains the month and last day of the month, but you will want to go up a directory and download the latest date instead to include the current changes). A table showing the changes from \CGG{} mode to standard mode can be found here: \nameref{sec:alternative_shortcuts}.

success. Included in this section are some of the build variations
easily available for normal builds.
+You can, during compilation, use a patch that changes the main non-standard shortcuts of \CGG{} to standard ones (\texttt{Ctrl+S} and \texttt{J, K, L}, etc.).
+A table showing the changes from \CGG{} mode to standard mode can be found here: \nameref{sec:alternative_shortcuts}.
+The instructions for the build with the patch are as follows. After downloading the sources from the git repository in the usual way, you apply the patch:

+\begin{lstlisting}[style=sh]
+ cd cinelerra-5.1
+ patch -p1 -i alt_shortcuts.patch
+ ./bld.sh

+A build farm for \CGG{} deb and rpm packages that is in development is at this location \url{https://github.com/einhander/cin-gg-packages/releases}.
+It can build packages on every git change in the main repo with
