Yep. > But having xfrun4 call into thunar would make xfrun4 dependent on it. > Maybe try thunar and if it isn't running fall back to current behaviour, > meaning code is duplicated in thunar's copy and the original xfrun4. Of course, there's a fallback in xfrun4. xfrun4 will first connect to the session bus and invoke a method in Thunar, if either of these actions fail, it'll popup it's own dialog. In fact, the idea is have a Thunar-independent D-BUS interface org.xfce.RunDialog, which can also be implemented by xffm or whatever file manager, so non-Thunar users can also benefit from this, once the other file managers implement the interface. > Jani Benedikt _______________________________________________ Thunar-dev mailing list [email protected] http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev
