I wonder if we should move part of this into the build.rs script. |

@lhecker Good idea, i made the corresponding changes |

I have reviewed this PR and unfortunately, I must say that I consider it too complex for our first version of an install script. Thanks to git your feature-rich version will not be lost, but I'll push a version that is significantly simpler for now. |
All good! Thank you for still pursuing this update! I hope some version of my code will be helpful in some regard. |
This PR adds tools/install.sh and a small README section to provide a single-line Linux install (curl | bash) that builds Edit from source across popular distros. It does not modify Edit’s code. Instead, it prepares the system so Edit’s existing ICU-based search works reliably by ensuring unversioned ICU SONAMEs are discoverable at runtime. This resolves issue #616.
