Re: viewing and editing the "run command" field of a launcher

[Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller <Uraeus linuxrising org>]

hi,
Actually, there do seem to be a bug here. Launchers in the panel do show
a command field. but launchers on the desktop do not. Peter you should
check to see if this issue is in Nautilus bugzilla. If not file a bug
towards nautilus on it.
