I have a program for some mathematical calculations. I use gnuplot to plot the results. My program creates files with the extension .plt, e.g. U10.plt. To plot the results in this file, I open a terminal, cd to the directory of where U10.plt resides, and I type the command gnuplot U10.plt That works OK. But it would be easier if I can plot the data in the .plt files by clicking on it in the Nautilus file manger. However, simply associating the file with gnuplot (using the properties of U10.plt) does not work. How can I start gnuplot by clicking on a .plt file in the Nautilus file manger (Ubuntu)?
Directly associating a .plt file to gnuplot doesn't seem to work. Therefore I tried the following sript file as a work around: #!/bin/csh gedit $1 #/usr/bin/gnuplot #/usr/bin/gnuplot $1 If I associate .plt file with this script, the .plt file will be opened by gedit. However, if I change the script into: #!/bin/csh #gedit $1 /usr/bin/gnuplot #/usr/bin/gnuplot $1 nothing happens... (In a terminal /usr/bin/gnuplot starts gnuplot) It seems that gnuplot is not started by Nautilus Obviously, for #!/bin/csh #gedit $1 #/usr/bin/gnuplot /usr/bin/gnuplot $1 nothing happens.
