Yeah, would be good to get this merged

@vietvh-3042 Your problem at line 1 doesn't seem to be related to my modifications.

thiagodeev · 2025-06-13T16:39:58Z

Thanks, it worked!
@jorcelinojunior please review it

Velenir · 2025-07-02T11:47:27Z

Version fetching with this updated script broke for me today.
First because API_URL now redirects, second because it didn't work without some header.
Changing L175 from curl -s \"$API_URL\" to curl -sL -H \"User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0\" \"$API_URL\" fixed that.

SandiyosDev · 2025-09-19T06:39:33Z

will this be merged and tagged? current release does not function
Is this repo abandoned

mablr · 2025-09-19T07:32:56Z

Yes repo is abandoned, that’s why I maintained a fork.

Now cursor has released a deb package, this script is actually useless.
