Menambahkan aplikasi khusus ke peluncur GNOME

Mencari utilitas yang memungkinkan saya memasukkan item ke daftar aplikasi yang diketahui GNOME.

Sebagai contoh:
Saya telah mengunduh Eclipse EE (Saya memiliki beberapa plugin yang sangat khusus yang perlu saya kerjakan, dan plugin tersebut tidak "menyukai" versi yang tersedia di repositori default). Saya menggunakan GNOME 3, di Ubuntu 11.10. Jadi saya ingin menjalankan Eclipse tanpa membuka terminal dan menjalankannya.

Pasti sesuatu yang sangat sederhana.

Anda dapat menggunakan Menu Utama untuk ini. Jika tidak, instal dulu:

sudo apt-get install alacarte

1. Buka Menu Utama

2. Lihat contohnya

Setelah itu Anda dapat memanggil aplikasi Anda dengan nama: "command_of_application".

Sunting: Saya melewatkan bahwa Anda telah meminta aplikasi di direktori home Anda. Jika demikian, perintah haruslah path lengkap dari aplikasi itu.

Peluncur aplikasi yang Gnome tahu adalah file .desktop /usr/share/applications, dan ~/.local/share/applications. Anda dapat membuat peluncur khusus untuk apa pun yang ada di folder rumah Anda, baik dengan secara manual membuat dan mengedit file .desktop kustom, atau dengan menggunakan Alacarte, editor menu Gnome lama.

Dokumentasi file desktop Gnome dapat membantu: https://developer.gnome.org/integration-guide/stable/desktop-files.html.en

Peluncur khusus hanyalah file teks, bernama, misalnya EclipseEE.desktop,, dengan konten berikut:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Eclipse EE
Exec=/home/mrPeterson/path_to_executable
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Icon=/optional/path/to/icon.png

(Repost dari OP asli)

Ini adalah trik rapi yang ditunjukkan di tempat lain:

gnome-desktop-item-edit ~/Desktop/ --create-new

Sekarang, saya punya Ikon. Itu adalah fitur yang bagus untuk terikat ke menu konteks, tapi sayangnya, saya tidak melihatnya.

Saya suka gnome-desktop-item-editsolusi sederhana Jorge . Namun, jika saya menempatkan .desktopfile di ~/Desktop/atasnya tidak muncul sebagai aplikasi tetapi hanya sebagai file di menu gnome. Jadi saya lakukan:

sudo gnome-desktop-item-edit /usr/share/applications/ --create-new

Saya tahu utas ini agak lama, tetapi saya ingin berbagi dengan kalian fungsi bash ini yang baru saya buat karena ... karena saya bisa. Jika Anda merasa bermanfaat, silakan menggunakannya!

Peringatan: Saya baru saja berhasil. Itu mungkin tidak sempurna.
