[Bug 1433774] Re: When double clicking an executable bash script in file manager, it opens in gedit rather than executing
And with Ubuntu 21.10, it's gotten worse. The "Executable Text Files" preferences is gone. The dconfg property executable-text-activation is gone. Double clicking still opens the file in gedit. But at least "run as a program" was added to the right-click menu, so that's good, I guess? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1433774 Title: When double clicking an executable bash script in file manager, it opens in gedit rather than executing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1433774/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

IN our Setup script we do : gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.preferences executable-text-activation ask So the user can decide if he wants to execute it . This should be the default behaviour. if security risk is too high, then we should create a default "script executor" that would warn the user harder like on Windows 10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1433774 Title: When double clicking an executable bash script in file manager, it opens in gedit rather than executing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1433774/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

As I said on [this][1] probable upstream issue this bug seems to be reduced just to have by default 'ask' or 'launch' as the default value for key `executable-text-activation` (on org.gnome.nautilus.preferences), or I'm missing something?

Executing should be the default behavior.
