- <p>An executable text file is a file that contains a program that you can run (execute). The <link
xref="nautilus-file-properties-permissions">file permissions</link> must also allow for the file to run as a
program. The most common are Shell, Python, and Perl scripts. These have extensions .sh, .py and .pl,
respectively.</p>
- <p>You can select to <gui>Run executable text files when they are opened</gui>, <gui>View executable text
files when they are opened</gui> or <gui>Ask each time</gui>. If the last option is selected, a window will
appear asking if you wish to run or view the selected text file.</p>

+ <p>Navigate to the desired folder.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Select the desired file.</p>

+ <p>A script will not be passed any parameters when executed from a remote
