Hi Guys, Under Xfce 4.4.2 and CentOS 5.6 x32 I can run the following from a program launcher in my panel without issue: rdesktop -N -d abc-server -u Administrator -g 80% -a 16 -r printer:B4350='HP LaserJet IIP' -r disk:MyLocalDrive=/home/OurStuff/temp -r clipboard:CLIPBOARD 67.xxx.yyy.zzz:abcd Portions of the above are redacted. Under Xfce 4.8.3 and Scientific Linux 6.1 x 64, nothing happens when I click on the (pop up from the launcher) icon: no pop ups, no errors, nothing in /var/log/messages. If I copy and paste it to a command prompt (xterm), the run line works fine. Wrapping the run line around a bash script (bash -c "rdesktop ...") also does not work either. The work around is to copy the run line to a one line bash script and point the icon to the bash script. Many thanks, -T
You need a double %%. I think that should fix it.
"%%" worked perfectly. Thank you! Question: since this is a change in behavior from Xfce 4.4.2 to 4.8, is this change a bug or is it on purpose? -T
Purpose, %F etc are replaced with the filename if an uri is dropped on the launcher, so we follow the .desktop file spec.
(In reply to comment #3) > Purpose, %F etc are replaced with the filename if an uri is dropped on the > launcher, so we follow the .desktop file spec. Okay. Then the change is on purpose. Closing my report as invalid. Thank you for the %% tip! -T
