Description usrrgt 2008-10-02 15:30:48 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 3.5.10)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Nautilus show these options opening scripts (look the snapshot).

I propose this feature for Dolphin. But with one more option: "Open in terminal as root".

Nautilus approach

In fact ... in Nautilus they have an interesting approach for this issue. 


In the PREFERENCES dialog three options are provided (see Nautilus-approach.png)  :

       -  RUN executable text files when they are opened

       -  VIEW executable text files when they are opened

       -  ASK each time



Is it viable to implement something similar in Dolphin ???????

Bug 275405 has more information and a patch. I am too tired to follow the discussion there, but maybe someone can test the patch.

Comment 12 Philipp A. 2013-10-31 10:53:51 UTC

another option would be to go with overlays: when setting dolphin to “one click to open files”, clicking the upper left corner adds it to a selection instead. could we e.g. use the upper right corner to display that a file is executable (see bug 268750), and make it only run when clicking that corner?

so we have, in the 4 corners:

add/remove selection (if hovered) | cog (if executable)
VCS status (if under VCS) | symlink icon (if symlink)

clicking any part other than the cog or plus/minus opens it, clicking the cog executes it, and the plus/minus is for selection.

> so we have, in the 4 corners:

Please note that we don't have 4 well-defined corners at all if the icon size is quite small (which is the default in Details and Compact View). So I'm afraid your idea would basically only work in Icons View.
