ShowIfTrue feature would be nice! #46

First, this is great replacement for the old nautilus-actions package. Thanks!

The only feature that I miss from the old days is the ShowIfTrue condition that let you specify a command whose output would determine whether to show an action or not.

For example I had an Eject action to detach mounted filesystems defined by

Exec=umount %f
ShowIfTrue=sed -z 's/.*\\s%f\\>.*/true/' /etc/mtab

This would add even more flexibility on top of mime, file type and path pattern conditions.

I've just discovered that this is already a TO-DO: https://github.com/bassmanitram/actions-for-nautilus/blob/main/TO-DO.md

Never mind :)

Thanks for the kind comments.

Yes that is in the TODOs... I actually didn't think anyone would want that. So I'll consider how to implement it now. Thanks for the nudge
