Nautilus - Make Desktop File Script

A simple script to create a desktop file for any executable in Nautilus.
Right click any executable, go to "Scripts" and select "Make Desktop File".

Desktop files are used to launch applications from the desktop, menus, and other locations.
They'll be stored in ~/.local/share/applications/ and will be named after the executable.

Installation

  1. Git clone (recommended) or download
  2. Symlink (recommended) or extract to ~/.local/share/nautilus/scripts

Updating

If you used Git clone and symlinked the script; all you have to do is run git pull in the Git cloned directory to update the files.
Otherwise, you'll have to re-download all the files and extract them to your nautilus scripts folder on each update.
