Glad you found a decent alternative to this. FYI, when you encounter a .sh file (shell script) right click it and open-with : text editor and have a quick read, to see if any blatantly obvious malice is listed in it. Afterwards you can drag the file onto open terminal and press Enter. OR you can "dot-slash" it, which is a way to run it in terminal, by doing ./scriptname.sh in its residing directory

golden ingot Jul 23, 2024, 10:05 PM

#

touch start.sh and everything

#

u'd have to mark it executable first either in the file manager properties> permissions box, or by command

#

then dot slash it

golden ingot Jul 23, 2024, 10:06 PM

#

ye its executeable

#

is their a way to make it run when double clicked or do i need to go thru the dialog box each time

tall pebble Jul 23, 2024, 10:08 PM

Yeah you can likely accept the warning popup on double click, and have it remember to run that type of file each time
