Implement 'Execute Delayed' with the 'Run Any Command' action #469

Closed NeighNeighNeigh closed 1 week ago

NeighNeighNeigh commented 2 weeks ago

Description

I make use of shell commands / scripts as much as possible. Often these are specific to the foreground app. Currently it is not possible to use these types of commands with Kando, as they often run before Kando loses focus. It would be nice if the 'Execute Delayed' option (from the Hotkey action) was also available in the 'Run Any Command' action.

Good idea! Should be easy to add.

Agreed, and it would also be helpful for the 'Open files or website' action.

Sorry, but why?

Crunchbits commented 1 week ago

I was using the URI action to run my scripts because the Launch Application action was failing to execute. However, I just double checked and just noticed the hint "If the path to an executable contains spaces, you should "wrap it in quotes'".

So user error on my part. I retract my part of the suggestion.
