Zeckmathederg b6e0053e6a *: Remove <application> tags.
The application tag seemed to just put an extra space on either side of
the word(s) the tags surrounded and seemed to serve no purpose beyond
that. If it served the purpose of jhalfs, well this book is not
supported by jhalfs. The result of the tags just added space in both the
rendered output and in the XML files.

Now, when referring to a package name, we just say the name and don't
surround it via a tag. The only exception is using <command>,
<filename>, <xref>, or <ulink>.

Now that have Steam and/or
Wine, you now have decent support for running
binary only applications. However, there are AppImages and Flatpaks. This
book does not and will not go over how to get that support. However, you
can figure out how to get that support by looking at another project the
GLFS development team works on:
<ulink url="&slfs-website;">SLFS</ulink>. The
specific section you will want to see to get that support is
<ulink url="&slfs-website;/binary/binary.html">
Binary Support</ulink>.

After following the instructions, you should be able to run AppImages and
use Flatpak. You can even use Flatpak to install
Steam if you wish. That method is not covered in
this book.
