How can I make a desktop shortcut of the two highlighted shell files (forge.sh and forge-adventure.sh)? Copying and pasting doesn't work since the filepath isn't brought over with them. I've tried using Menu Editor but can't find a decent guide on setting it up.
That's what I use, but desktop environments ignore symbolic links on the "Desktop" for some safety reason.
I didn't know that it was ignored, seems weird to just not use it for desktop files, an icon to show it was a symbolic link would be enough, but that is only my opinion, idk anything about security.
That's what I said! :D when Ubuntu ignored my soft links and I had to look it up how to do it "the Desktop way" like OP did. On the plus side, .desktop files let you also specify the working path, the icon, and whether to run in terminal or in background.
On KDE, it looks like to be different, with different bugs, could be gnome being gnome. Seems fixed on KDE Plasma 6.
