EG: xdg-open 'http://www.freedesktop.org/'
That works on my system to bring up FF on my linbox... So where does xdg-open look and how can I tell it to open "foobar.sh" in ~/bin?
It tries several things. Just look at it, it's a shell script. E.g., one of the options to set it is setting the environment variable BROWSER.
I.e. that tells me something that uses "where the default browser is set", but doesn't really tell me where it is set. (maybe that firefox.desktop). But even there, I have to figure out how "firefox.desktop" gets turned into an app-execution.
Any application that gets executed from a DE menu is 'defined' in .desktop files. Standard location for system ones would be /usr/share/applications, and indeed speedy:~% locate firefox.desktop /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
Same with several other associations in that ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list...
BTW, you could copy that firefox.desktop to ~/.local/share/applications and make changes therein, that would override the system version. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
