Love the icon, it's awesome!
I think I'd change this, looking at what the spec has to offer:
[Desktop Entry]
GenericName=Web Browser # These are somewhat standardized and used for matching, so let's match Firefox's
Comment=Keyboard driven (emacs key bindings) browser, https://webmacs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ # Let's use our actual flavor text
TryExec=webmacs # TryExec is always nice to add
Keywords=emacs;keyboard;driven; # This is not a text editor...
We can also consider defining Actions
that use the -i
and -p
flags :)
Lol glad you like it! hahaha rotate E and recolor :P
How about this. It passed desktop-file-validate
and seems to be working for me on Ubuntu 16 GNOME:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Webmacs
GenericName=Web Browser
Comment=Keyboard driven (emacs key bindings) browser, https://webmacs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
MimeType=application/pdf;application/rdf+xml;application/rss+xml;application/xhtml+xml;application/xhtml_xml;application/xml;image/gif;image/jpeg;image/png;image/webp;text/html;text/xml;x-scheme-handler/ftp;x-scheme-handler/http;x-scheme-handler/https;
Exec=webmacs %F
TryExec=webmacs
Icon=webmacs
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Categories=Network;WebBrowser;
Keywords=emacs;keyboard;driven;
I was adding a profile action but I'm not sure you can parametrize it then with just strings.
LGTM - actions are definitely a bit of a stretch goal, we'd need to make the "new window" or "new buffer" things a bit more obvious from the CLI, and have a hardcoded "private" profile or somesuch. So let's discuss that in a different ticket.
For now I'd love to see a PR for this .desktop
and that icon!
Just check we have some attribution and maybe ping Emacs upstream to see if we're ok with that icon. Both us and Emacs are GPL, but the icon might be a different story; altough I can't imagine we would not be allowed this :)
Hi there, I'm back in the game to maintain this project on my free time. The icon is really nice, feel free to make a PR. :)
Was annoyed at not having a desktop icon so I made one (I also have svg), let me know if you'd want to include it.
I also wrote a .desktop file but I'm sure its crappy. Will make PR if I get some confirmation.
