 |
|
I'm trying to create a shortcut on my desktop to Mozilla but I can't figure out how to get it to work. You first have to goto the Mozilla directory and then run './Mozilla' but I don't see how I can work that into the shortcut.

| you only need the ./ if you are in the directory. If you're specifying an entire path, you don't need it. |

I just made s crappy little script that runs mozilla
| Code: | #!/bin/bash
exec mozilla |
That should start it.

| Ok I tried the little script suggestion but never have made a script before I didn't succeed, all I want to do is make a shortcut on the Gnome and/or KDE desktop that all I have to do is click and Mozilla will open.. |

Well, in KDE, just open the menu thingy, go to Internet, find Mozilla, and drag it to your desktop. 
Or, right click your desktop, Create New, Link to Application, and tell it to launch Mozilla. |
