Search in multiple sources of desktop file
Let's see on example: /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop In this Nautilus desktop file we have:
Name[ru] = Файлы
Name = Files
Keywords[ru]=папка;менеджер;обзор;диск;файловая система;nautilus;
Keywords=folder;manager;explore;disk;filesystem;nautilus;
Exec=nautilus --new-window %U
In ru
locale I can search only via Файлы
keyword. I can't search Files
, Nautilus
, Диск
. It makes harder to find anything because:
- I have to know how the app name is translated to my language
- I should switch from one language to another just because I have to use specific locale for writing the app name.
- I can't search using keywords which is so helpfull when the app name is not yet remembered (some new or unused software)
So in my opinion would be great to use this data for search:
-
name
without localization -
name[user_locale]
-
keywords
-
keywords[user_locale]
-
Exec
. Maybe withoutexec
or at least with the first word in exec since it can be something likenautilus --new-window %U
. Important part here isnautilus
, not--new-window
.
