Note that Raspbery Pi hardware architecture is DIFFERENT from the "x86" architecture that is required by the "AppImage" version of LAC that we began publishing in November of 2021. Accordingly, we do not offer an "AppImage" version of LAC for the Raspberry Pi.

However, the popular version that we have long been publishing includes a fully compiled binary executable for 32-bit Raspbian, so there is no need to compile LAC on your Raspberry Pi on that platform unless you really want to. The standardized nature of Raspberry Pi 4b and Raspberry Pi 400 hardware precludes any need for an "AppImage" version.

After downloading LAC for the 32-bit Raspbian operating system you will need to install it by running the install.sh script as root ("sudo install.sh"). After that you can run it by just entering the following command from a command shell:

lac

However, it will not work correctly until after you have also installed the free, well known "freeglut3" library. Further details are available here:
