Installing 4 joe desktop files for every isn't the best user experience
The reason it installs 4 desktop files, is because it also installs ones for the Wordstar, Nano and Emacs versions.
yes, I see that now. but I seldom use the menu for anything. I have shortcuts defined for most used apps and <alt><f2> for the rest, and joe is a cl app.
removing the ".desktop" files is ok by me as if I particularly see the need for one, I can create it by copying an existing and editing.
Even for Windows, I cannot even remember a time I used the .lnk file for any editor, either. It has always just been Super-R, notepad (or other name), Enter. (Or create new file in the file manager / then edit) I guess there is only two or three reasons for .lnk/.desktop files to exist: - for a new user on an expedition mission through the start menu to see what's there - for a start menu to find an application when typing the initials (in case of xfrun that's when you use the Down arrow key) - to pull the shortcut from the menu onto the desktop, in case one is real heavy user of $editor -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
