If I look at my desktop directory I have several different launchers with different launcher names and different functions. Now If I open a tool like gftp or simply browse with my terminal in my desktop directory. I see all those strange file name's by the *.desktop. That don't make sens at all things like "set multiplier.desktop" for a launcer that starts a music program and stuff like that. I now how this comes and it would be nice to have a file name entry in the launcher editor. > (b) Why would you want to replace the nice and easy to use icon selector > with an ugly entry box? You may have missed the Thunar/Xfce motto "Keep > it simple". My motto is keep it simple,effective,stable,fast,free,open,good coded, good unusably good support and bug free. :-D So If I have a file with a link to a image I just want to be able to past it in a icon edit field and have the icon of my choice.
