0desktop1

Add programs to the desktop environment

Usage

0destkop [URI]

Overview

0desktop can be used to create launchers for 0install applications in desktop environments supporting the freedesktop.org menu specification (e.g. GNOME and KDE).

If the URI of a 0install application is given, this application is added. On success, a launcher is added to the user's menu which, when invoked, runs the application using the command "0launch URI".

Without a URI, a dialog box is displayed listing the user's current applications and allowing new ones to be added.

Files

~/.local/share/applications

Default directory in which the .desktop file for the new launcher is created.
