I hope this is the right place for this question, sorry if it is not. I
have googled quite a lot, and couldn't find any tutorial or information
related with how can I install my python programms in the gnome desktop.
I'm making programs using python and pygkt. What I would like to do is
installing them, so that they can be executed just like any other
application in the applications menu. If I try to execute a python
program by double click in gnome it appears the dialog asking if I you
want to show the content of the file or executing it. I know this
behaviour can be changed using gconf-editor, but I would prefer not to
change it, and still having my application integrated in the
applications menu, and executable by double click without intermediate
messages.
Make a .desktop file for your program; it is double-click executable
without the annoying dialog. Plus, you can install it
to /usr/share/applications to make it visible in the GNOME menu.
Any information or links to articles or docs, would be very appreciated.
