so im trying to create my own link/launcher to weechat with a specific screen command added on, on my desktop but i cant seem to get it to work, i get no window, almost like no response...
exactly what im trying to run, im trying to force it to use xfce4-terminal for this, i can get it to open the terminal but not run the specific command: screen -d -R weechat weechat
tried using command: xfce4-terminal then went to advanced options and Run in Terminal and did screen -d -R weechat
I've tried alot of different ways but apparently im missing the right way lol
Just as was suggested in the above posts, make a shell script, make it executable, make a .desktop file and put it in ~/.local/share/applications and in the .desktop file, make sure the path points to your shell script ( absolute path ).
I employ this method to use Docfetcher and a custom feh Folder slideshow/copy script. It works great.
