However one functionality that I have relied on for years is to run a program from a bash script that is stored in an area on say /opt In the past it was easy to make a launcher in KDE and then configure it to execute any script that I wanted, and to select any icon I wanted. The discussion you refer to seems not to answer that specific requirement or to suggest any easy alternative. This for me is a basic need and is a blocker to using KDE4 as a routine desktop. As an example if I install a third party application such as Maple which does not create any menu items to run it during the install process then it is necessary to have a link to the binary in order to execute it. For such an application it is vital to be able to make a quick launcher of some kind otherwise running it routinely is tedious. Are there plans to include this basic functionality in 4.2? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
