--- Comment #2 from karmy <[email protected]> --- Yes, I know this is called "field code expansion": I read the specification. :) That's why I said "expected behavior" in the first case ("%%" gives "%" on display), but not in the second one. However, I'm not agree with you when you say that "this type of evaluation […] seems unnecessary for autostart launchers". The percentage character can appear in option fields of many commands, like "top -o%MEM". So if you have in your desktop file Exec=xfce4-terminal -H -x top -o%MEM or a more complex command, like Exec=sh -c '… if [ … ]; then xfce4-terminal -H -x top -o%MEM; fi …' the launcher will work as autostart application (when put in ~/.config/autostart), but not in an active session (when put in ~/.local/share/applications). Furthermore, if you remove the line OnlyShowIn=XFCE; to use the launcher as autostart application with an other desktop environment, like gnome, it will not work, because gnome has consistent behavior between autostart and applications menu: I tested this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Xfce-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://mail.xfce.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce-bugs
