Hi all, I've eventually written my own draft of a desktop entry specification extension ; it is available at [1].
I don't have found a real consensus in the discussions which have already taken place here (see e.g. [2], [3], [4]). I have so preferred to go with a different approach which could be summarized in two points : - there is only one action per .desktop file, maybe with several profiles which may apply to different environments ; only the first profile whose conditions are met will be candidate to be displayed in the context menu for this action - menu definition is left to the already existing spec [5] ; I find it very complicated, and it may also need an extension, but it exists and cannot just be thrown away I'm conscious that this proposal is probably not what you could have wished. Do you are willing to comment this draft ? Thanks in advance Regards Pierre [1] http://www.nautilus-actions.org/?q=node/377 [2] http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2006-February/006094.html [3] http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2006-June/006612.html [4] http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2009-August/010914.html [5] http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/ [6] http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ _______________________________________________ Thunar-dev mailing list [email protected] http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev
