Title says it all. I'm really really new with Linux stuff. Using Xfce/Crouton/Ubuntu etc.
If you can be as specific as possible, or linking me to a guide that breaks everything down step by step that would be great. Thanks!
Write a shell script such as:
#!/bin/bash
java -jar OSBuddy.jar
save that to a file called OSBuddy.sh (caps in unix file names bug me but thats just me) and make sure to mark the permissions as executable.
chmod +x OSBuddy.sh
Now when you call it make sure to use:
./OSBuddy.sh
if you are in the same directory otherwise put it in the full path (if you call it from the command line).
To make an icon for it: Right click on your shell script in the file browser. Create link. Then drag and dropped the link to desktop.
Or run the program if its a GUI, and then on the launcher, right click and there should be a command to "Lock to Launcher".
