0desktop

NAME

       0desktop -- add programs to the desktop environment

SYNOPSIS

       0destkop [ URI ]

       0destkop --manage

DESCRIPTION

       0desktop can be used to create launchers for Zero Install applications in desktop environments supporting the freedesktop.org menu specifi-
       cation (e.g.  GNOME and KDE).

       If the URI of a Zero Install application is given, this application is added.  Without a URI, a dialog box is displayed prompting the  user
       to  specify  what  to  add.  On success, a launcher is added to the user's menu which, when invoked, runs the application using the command
       "0launch URI".

FILES

       ~/.local/share/applications
	      Default directory in which the .desktop file for the new launcher is created.
