chore: add binary aur install instructions to README #53
ananas/gram:main into main
Hi!
I haven't used Arch in a long time, so I am not sure what the usual way of packaging things like gram looks like.
There is already a package for gram listed in the README, https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gram .
Does it makes sense to have two separate packages like this? I am wondering if you can join forces with @nerdyslacker perhaps.
Just my two cents: the existing package builds from source and it is fairly common to have two packages for such applications, one building from source and one providing the binary directly. Especially with such a heavy project, having a binary package seems desirable to me.

like @theDoctor said, this project is heavy. Compiling it takes quite long and not everyone wants to compile it themselves. Usually on the AUR there's one build it from source and one binary version.
Thank you! Merged via separate PR to resolve merge conflicts.
