They likely were making the operating systems while balancing their job to cover expenses like rent and food.

ohh my apologies, i will upload later, just need that mnmo action feature and it’s straight to github

No links, it’s an app I created so… yeah.

Damn, i didn’t know this existed. Welp, at least I know how to manipulate the system from code.

Im using JavaFX, i forgot to type that in the title.

If it still doesn’t work, i may have to just CSS or show the devs my work and they’ll implement my work in their own way.

Hmm, why the bold?

to distinguish the quote from my reply

Maybe try https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47235022/add-a-custom-option-in-nautilus-right-click-menu ?

Will do, i’ll reply if it’ll work or not.

What did you put in the .desktop file?

I put the following:-

[Desktop Entry]
Name=IntelliJ Idea
Comment=IDE
Exec=/home/user/Programs/IntelliJ\ Idea/bin/idea.sh
Icon=/home/user/Programs/IntelliJ Idea/bin/idea.svg
Type=Application
Categories=Development;

basically

[Desktop Entry]
Name=<Name that will be seen in the start menu for whatever DE>
Comment=<Just write anything here>
Exec=<Your executable or shell application location goes here>
Icon=<Any icon you want to use>
Type=Application <this is default, no change here>
Categories=Development; <There are many categories, they go here>

For ‘Exec’ and ‘Icon’, type the absolute path for both em like the example. As for categories, here they are below:

• Audio
• Video
• Development
• Education
• Game
• Graphics
• Network
• Office
• Science
• Settings
• System
• Utility
• Other

File managers, because that’s where the applications are. As for desktop, I will give the option for that one or more users who do that.

How do I integrate gtk and qt, so both GNOME and KDE users can use this?

Great! This is going to be my first time doing this, hopefully this comes to everybody’s machine as default.

I’d recommend converting to Kotlin, which saves a lot on bureaucracy and IntelliJ can easily do

I’d love to, but my mind, time, and energy is being spent on other studies.

https://askubuntu.com/questions/431703/how-to-add-open-with-custom-command-option-in-right-click-menu-of-nautilus might have what you want

Didn’t work, no new option appears after following the steps.

Also, how’d you get the IntelliJ titlebar to work properly? In the new theme, I get two title bars on my machine.

Easy, I made a .desktop file for IntelliJ and boom, no double title bars.

Because that’s what I learned from Uni, didn’t want that skill to go to waste. I was thinking about how it would be easier to make the apps (plain applications that use executables and shell to run) .desktop file without any hassle (for new Linux users).

Also, Python was two semesters ago, so I forgot all about it.

I see, I didn’t know KDE had that, does KDE allow java apps to be used as the right click action? As for GNOME, I’m still trying to figure it out.

Until then, I will post the link to the app in the future. It needs some beautification, and quality of life changes so you and the others can use it as you use sudo apt update and upgrade to update your PCs.

Does it allow java applications to be used as an ‘action’?

An application and programs that use shell as their application, for example, IntelliJ IDEA use ‘idea.sh’ to run the IDE, so it would be useful for people to right-click and just create the ‘.desktop’ file right away.

8 gigs of update after leaving for 6 months is a sensible thing to occur. I don’t know why it is a thing to be enraged by.

I mean, if you don’t update an OS and you come back to check go updates, it will pile on to become a huge update like the 8 gigs.

Lastly, don’t distrohop because it is not there, there is always something that exists that can give you what you want.

searched and now I know how to use it.

Basically, I should use docker as a VPS, right? The only thing I was taught in bootcamp was how to use docker to create a setup for a new dev for a specific codebase, i.e. download required packages to work on the codebase through docker and use AWS as a VPS using Elastic and S3 to display the website.

I know how to get it on Ubuntu and Fedora, just not Arch.

Agreed, but the post was about helping installing the aforementioned softwares but imma yoink the idea for my future projects.

Unrelated but ok.
