As discussed in the Discord,

I would love to see when adding a game to the library inside of it autoselecting the closest EXE have a drop-down so we are able to manually select the EXE.

For example some games contain Multiple EXEs but only work if a certain one is launched.

Moved this to the drop repository since this has to implemented on the server.

This should be very doable, and it'll be a sweet feature! When I get around to it, probably tomorrow my time, I'll use one of these 'comboboxes' that Tailwind provides: https://tailwindui.com/components/application-ui/forms/comboboxes

It'll let you search for exe's that Drop has discovered, but also input your own.

Does this just include .sh files for Linux or any executable files at all?

It's based on file extension, so only .sh at the moment.
