Sure I can find out what is needed for a desktop file, and make an appropriate one, and then add it in... but it would be a heck of a lot easier to be able to do a few mouse clicks and add in the path to the script and the icon - especially if doing it more than a few times! But what about the less experienced new arrival to Linux? Could he/she do it easily and before frustration took priority or would it mean that a move to a different distro was easier than trying to get an "essential" non-Fedora program running easily? The previous poster referred to KDE3.5 where this has been available for years. However this is really sorely needed in KDE4 so I do hope that it will be brought within radar range before too long. Maybe it is possible to code a plasmoid that is a token for adding your own icon and path to a script or executable? I have not tried to write code for that so I don't know if it is a long job or not. However given the rate at which plasmoids/widgets appear it is presumably not entirely trivial. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
