I am using a Chromebook with Linux turned on, and am wondering how I can add a shortcut to the app drawer that opens the terminal and runs a .py or .sh file. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks in advance,
Gomenburu
Create a desktop file under /usr/share/applications.
For example:
$ ls -l /home/norioy01/hoge.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 norioy01 norioy01 28 Sep 27 09:04 /home/norioy01/hoge.sh
$
$ cat /home/norioy01/hoge.sh
#!/bin/bash
touch hoge.txt
$
$ ls -l /usr/share/applications/hoge.desktop
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 158 Sep 27 09:14 /usr/share/applications/hoge.desktop
$
$ cat /usr/share/applications/hoge.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0

Exec=/home/norioy01/hoge.sh
