PCManFM not recognizing germinal

Open julientechdev opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

I've been using Germinal for a while now, it's an ultra simple VTE-based terminal: https://github.com/Keruspe/Germinal

One can configure the startup command to be any shell or program, default is tmux but I just have zsh.

The main reason I'm creating this issue is because I cannot use the "open this folder in terminal" feature by pressing F4, it justs open a terminal to my $HOME.

Here's the warning message: ** (pcmanfm:4380): WARNING **: 01:00:33.762: terminal germinal isn't known, consider report it to LibFM developers

I can help if needed.

Thank you very much for reporting this. Your help would be much appreciated. Two things are needed:

  1. manual page (options to execute a command in terminal and to not close a window after finishing the execution are in interest);
  2. if there is a .desktop file available.

From your link it seems -e is used to execute, no option to not close, and .desktop file seems to be org.gnome.Germinal.desktop. Is that correct?

  1. There is no manual page, and I've already looked into options to execute a command in terminal. Germinal is just a wrapper for VTE, and has an option to send the default command to execute, the default being tmux but I configured mine to be zsh.
  2. Yes, org.gnome.Germinal.desktop, containing Exec=/usr/bin/germinal
