FEATURE: Add shortcuts for Pycharm and IntelliJ IDEA #4

Closed SteveParson closed 4 years ago

SteveParson commented 5 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Both Pycharm and IntelliJ IDEA are installed to /usr/local/bin. Currently there is no shortcut to these programs in the GUI.

Describe the solution you'd like In order to be useful, there needs to be a shortcut present to these programs.

If someone were to edit the Ansible role to add these two files to /home/vagrant/Desktop, we would be in business.

vagrant@xubuntu:~/Desktop$ cat IntelliJ\ IDEA.desktop 
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=IntelliJ IDEA
Comment=
Exec=/usr/local/bin/idea-IC-183.5912.21/bin/idea.sh
Icon=/usr/local/bin/idea-IC-183.5912.21/bin/idea.png
Path=
Terminal=false
StartupNotify=false

vagrant@xubuntu:~/Desktop$ cat PyCharm.desktop 
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=PyCharm
Comment=
Exec=/usr/local/bin/pycharm-community-2018.3.5/bin/pycharm.sh
Icon=/usr/local/bin/pycharm-community-2018.3.5/bin/pycharm.png
Path=
Terminal=false
StartupNotify=false

It would also be nice to adjust the files list under Exec to have the executable bit set, to avoid this ugly message. image

The best way to resolve this problem is to create an executable file. 

chmod +x IDEA.desktop
chmod +x pycharm.desktop

and then try running the shortcuts again.

If this issue is still there, Can I work on it?
