How to make my own klik program???

[j.drake]

I've noticed that clicking a shell script doesn't work, try opening up a shell and manually starting it.

Well, in fairness, I've only succeeded in doing this a couple of times - but it was a couple of times out of a couple of attempts, so I assumed that it would always work that way. I guess you found some cases in which it doesn't.

If it doesn't:

1. chmod 777 ./nameofscript.sh
2. make sure that the script has in its first line: #!/bin/sh
3. click on the script with both mouse buttons

Hm, even in this way

1. chmod 777 ./nameofscript.sh
2. the script has in its first line: #!/bin/sh
3. click on the script with both mouse buttons

it didn`t worked for me((
As I said. I`m trying to run/install opera 7.54

Any other suggestions?

I think if probono is kind enough to create tutorial on how to make klik recipes, it will greatly appreciated. It wll make "klik" community grow faster.

I've tried to download a klik program (one of the games) and for some reason it coulnd't find the recipe. So Klik tried to make its own recipe. It didn't work because the file was corrupted and I haven't tried it since, but it appears we can make our own now.

Did you try calling it up from the consel(sp) yet?

I can't understand how this wouldn't work now enless the script is corrupted.

I`ve just tried to install Opera but with no success(

Since today, you could try klik://opera (i have tested it with Kanotix, but it should work in Knoppix as well). It might give an error message at 1st run but should work afterwards.

I know that it is no possible to ask Probono to make klik for every program I met in tne Internet.

I'm a huge fan of efficiency, and thus want to automate as much as possible. Making all applications from debian klik-able is the current goal, and we are close to it

If you really want a new application on klik then maybe the best thing to do is to try getting it included in debian, and thus in klik.

In the meantime, creating klik recipes isn't trivial but on IRC #klik we'll try to help you as good as we can.
