* The Desktop startup directory

|
|
|

|
|
|
The directory $(libdir)/mc/desktop-scripts is a place holder for
|
1999-03-20 21:08:52 +03:00
|
|
|
information on how to configure the default's user desktop. There are
|
|
|
|
|
a number of files that can be installed in this directory:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Link definition files: These files are used to create
|
|
|
|
|
links to web and ftp sites on the user's desktop.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Executables: Programs or links to programs that will be
|
|
|
|
|
executed when the user requests a directory rescan.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Link definition file format
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The file should contain an ini-like file whose contents are as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[linkname]
|
|
|
|
|
title=Title in english
|
|
|
|
|
title[NN]=Title in language NN
|
|
|
|
|
type=url
|
|
|
|
|
url=some-url
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The linkname is the name of the file that will be created in the
|
|
|
|
|
user's desktop directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
title is the caption that will be used by this file. This can be
|
|
|
|
|
localized by providing one or more title[NN] entries, where NN is
|
|
|
|
|
the setting that would be set by the user for the NN locale.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Executables
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Executable programs will be executed like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
program --desktop-dir DESKTOPDIR
|
|
|
|
|
|
1999-06-03 22:31:05 +04:00
|
|
|
Where DESKTOPDIR is the user's desktop directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The program can then populate the directory with any information it
|
|
|
|
|
might want. This is used for example by the g-print program (that
|
|
|
|
|
provides priting facilities by creating special desktop entries that
|
|
|
|
|
set up the drop action and varios different open actions)
|
