[kde3] being lazy, any liking to keep cli terse, i wrote scripts for 'ifup eth1' and 'ifdown eth1' which i named 'ifu' and 'ifd'. i then edited 'k menu' and added these 2 scripts with 'up arrow' and 'down arrow' as icons. then i added them to 'quick launcher' where they stand out well. you should be able to do same in kde4, unless it does not allow editing of 'k menu'. i installed f9, but did not spend much time playing with it to find out if 'k menu' could be edited. which i would hope ability would still be. in kde3 it is right click on icon and select 'menu editor'. > 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 good a place as any. i have a path of '/home/users/scripts/' where i keep all user scripts and link it to each users '~/'. for root, i use a private directory '/root/bin/' where i put special binaries and scripts for root use only as they are not available thru 'su' or 'sudo'. > In the past it was easy to make a launcher in KDE and then configure it a lot of things where easy in kde prior to kde4. hopefully, when f10 gets a few months out, kde4 will have 'goodies' of kde3 available. > Are there plans to include this basic functionality in 4.2? your guess is as good as mine. i am on kde email list, but do not believe i have seen much of kde3 features getting move up to kde4. there is a lot planned, but with all of how kde4 was 'improved', there is no telling when 'proven' will get moved in. - -- tc,hago. g . in a free world without fences, who needs gates. learn linux: 'Rute User's Tutorial and Exposition' http://rute.2038bug.com/index.html.gz 'The Linux Documentation Project' http://www.tldp.org/ 'LDP HOWTO-index' http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/index.html 'HowtoForge' http://howtoforge.com/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Red Hat - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJDrwg+C4Bj9Rkw/wRAhKtAJ93X4Lu7areCAJcFWaPU/rNzKfg4QCg1K4U UpNJOA74JIMu3tLW5FPZCzA= =1XeD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
