Indlela yokudala izinqamuleli ku-Linux kusuka kumhleli wombhalo

Uma ubulokhu usebenzisa i-GNU/Linux isikhathi esithile, cishe usucabange kaningi ukuthi kungaba kuhle kangakanani ukuvula izinhlelo zakho zokusebenza noma izikripthi ngokuchofoza okukodwa , njengakwezinye izinhlelo. Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi kungenzeka ngokuphelele, futhi ngezindlela eziningana: ngamafayela e-.desktop, izixhumanisi ezingokomfanekiso, noma amathuluzi edeskithophu anezithombe.

Kulesi sihloko, sizobheka isinyathelo ngesinyathelo ukuthi ungadala kanjani izinqamuleli ku-Linux usebenzisa umhleli wombhalo , ukuthi ungawasebenzisa kanjani kumenyu yohlelo lokusebenza nakudeskithophu, nokuthi ungawaxhumanisa kanjani amafolda, izikripthi, izinhlelo ze-Windows newayini, noma ngisho namakhasi ewebhu. Uzobona ukuthi akuyona inkimbinkimbi, futhi uma usuyazi kahle, uzoyisebenzisa njalo.

Iyini indlela emfushane ku-Linux: iziqalisi, izixhumanisi ezingokomfanekiso, namafayela e-.desktop

Ezweni le-Linux, lokho okuvame ukubizwa ngokuthi "isinqamuleli" kwezinye izinhlelo kungathatha izinhlobo ezimbili eziyinhloko: isixhumanisi esingokomfanekiso (i-symlink) noma isiqalisi (.desktop) . Nakuba zombili zivumela ukufinyelela okusheshayo kokuthile, ukusebenza kwazo kanye nokusetshenziswa kwazo kuhlukile.

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, izixhumanisi ezingokomfanekiso (kudalwe ngomyalo ln -sLokhu kufana "nezinqamuleli" ezingeni lesistimu yamafayela: zikhomba ifayela langempela noma isiqondisi futhi zivumela ukufinyelela kulo kusuka endleleni ehlukile. Uhlelo luchaza lelo fayela njengokubhekisela endaweni yokuqala.

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, iziqalisi zohlelo lokusebenza Amafayela ombhalo anesandiso se-. .desktop Lokhu kulandela ifomethi ejwayelekile yedeskithophu (i-XDG Desktop Entry). Kuchaza ukuthi uhlelo lokusebenza kufanele lusebenze kanjani: yimuphi umyalo okufanele uqalwe, yisiphi isithonjana okufanele siboniswe, ukuthi kufanele sivule i-terminal noma cha, uhlobo luni lwento, njll.

Ubuhle bamafayela e-.desktop ukuthi ahlangana nendawo yezithombe : imenyu yohlelo lokusebenza, usesho lwesistimu (ideshi, ibhodi, Imisebenzi, njll.), iphaneli noma idokhi, ngisho nedeskithophu, uma nje ivumela izithonjana.

Ekusatshalalisweni okuningi kwesimanje, uma ufaka uhlelo oluvela ezindaweni zokugcina, ifayela lalo le-.desktop lidalwa ngokuzenzakalelayo ku- /usr/share/applications noma ku-~/.local/share/applications . Kodwa-ke, uma ufaka izinhlelo zokusebenza ngesandla (isibonelo, ngokulanda ifayela le-tar.gz, iskripthi , i-Wine executable, noma incwadi yedijithali), uvame ukuba ne-binary noma iskripthi kufolda yakho, futhi kufanele udale isinqamuleli ngokwakho.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, ezinye izindawo zedeskithophu ezifana ne -GNOME zikhubaza izithonjana zedeskithophu noma inketho yokudala iziqalisi ngokuchofoza kwesokudla ngokuzenzakalelayo, ngakho-ke kuyasiza ukwazi indlela yesandla usebenzisa umhleli wombhalo.

Dala isiqalisi se-.desktop sohlelo lokusebenza olufakwe ku-/root noma kufolda yakho yasekhaya

Isibonelo esivamile yilapho i-ascargas Ususa ukucindezela uhlelo lokusebenza olucindezelwe (isibonelo, i-Thunderbird, i-IDE, noma yiluphi uhlelo oluphathekayo) futhi I-executable ihlala kufolda yangaphakathi efana ne-/root/miapp noma kweyakho /home/usuarioUkuze uyiqalise, udinga ukuvula i-terminal bese thayipha indlela eya ku-binary isikhathi ngasinye, kukhona okungakhululekile.

Umyalo: /root/thunderbird/thunderbird

Ukwenza lokhu ngesandla njalo kuyinkinga, ngakho-ke kungcono ukuthi udale ifayela le-.desktop ngaphakathi kwe-/usr/share/applications ukuze livele kumenyu yezinhlelo zokusebenza futhi ungalinamathisela kuphaneli yakho yedeskithophu noma ku-launcher.

Umyalelo: sudo vim /usr/share/applications/Thunderbird.desktop

Isifanekiso: [Desktop Entry]
Name=Thunderbird
Comment=Cliente_de_correo
Exec=/root/thunderbird/thunderbird
Icon=/usr/share/icons/Vibrancy-Kali/apps/96/internet-mail.png
Terminal=false
Type=Application


Kulesi sibonelo, isakhiwo sefayela le-.desktop sijwayelekile kakhulu futhi insimu ngayinye isebenza umsebenzi othize :

• Igama: Igama elizovela kumenyu noma ngaphansi kwesithonjana. Lingaqukatha izikhala nezinhlamvu ezikhethekile.
• Amazwana: Incazelo emfushane noma inothi mayelana nohlelo. Ngezinye izikhathi lubonakala njengethuluzi lokufundisa uma uhambisa igundane phezu kwalo.
• I-Exec: Umyalo oqondile ozokwenziwa uma isiqalisi sichofozwa. Lokhu kuvame ukuba lapho indlela ephelele eya ku-binary noma iskripthi icacisiwe, futhi amapharamitha angangezwa.
• Isithonjana: Indlela eya esithombeni ezosetshenziswa njengesithonjana. Lokhu kungaba yindlela ephelele noma igama lesithonjana esivela kusihloko sesistimu.
• Isikhumulo: ikhombisa ukuthi uhlelo ludinga ukuvula i-terminal (true) noma cha (false).
• Uhlobo: uhlobo lokungena. Ezimweni eziningi kuzoba Application; akhona futhi Link o Directorykodwa azivamile kakhulu ukufinyelela ohlelweni.

Uma ifayela seligciniwe, uhlelo lwedeskithophu luzolibona futhi, ngemva kwemizuzwana embalwa noma ngemva kokuqala kabusha iseshini, Uzobona i-Thunderbird kumenyu yezinhlelo zokusebenza, ngegama olifakile NameUkusuka lapho, isibonelo, ungahudula isithonjana uye kuphaneli noma edokini ukuze uhlale unaso eduze.

Izinqamuleli ezisebenzisa izixhumanisi ezingokomfanekiso (ln -s)

Ngaphezu kwamafayela e-.desktop, kuvamile kakhulu ku-Linux ukusebenzisa izixhumanisi ezingokomfanekiso (ama-symlink) "njengezinqamuleli" kumafolda noma amafayela . Azihlanganisiwe kumenyu yohlelo lokusebenza, kodwa zilungele ideskithophu noma ukuhlela iziqondisi.

I-syntax: ln -s ruta/original ruta/del/enlace

Isibonelo esisebenzayo: ln -s /home/mi-usuario/Documentos/Lanzadores/www /home/mi-usuario/Escritorio

Kulo myalo, indlela yokuqala ikhombisa isiqondisi sangempela esizokhomba kuso isinqamuleli , kanti eyesibili iyindawo lapho isinqamuleli sizodalwa khona. Kuma-desktops ezithombe zanamuhla, lesi sixhumanisi sivela nesithonjana esiqukethe umcibisholo omncane noma uphawu olufanayo.

Kuhle ukukhumbula ukuthi umyalo ubhalwe ngosonhlamvukazi abancane ln ; ngezinye izikhathi ungaphambaniswa nohlamvukazi "i", kodwa akunjalo. Uma ufuna ukujula, ungahlala uthintana nosizo lohlelo.

Ukubonisana: man ln

Izixhumanisi ezingokomfanekiso ziwusizo ikakhulukazi uma ufuna, isibonelo, ukufinyelela okusheshayo kumafolda abiwe, iziqondisi ezikude ezifakiwe, noma izindawo ezijulile esakhiweni ngaphandle kokuphinda idatha noma ukuhlela kabusha wonke umuthi wakho wesiqondisi.

Dala isiqalisi se-.desktop sewebhusayithi

Ngezinye izikhathi awufuni ukuvula uhlelo lwendawo, kodwa kunalokho finyelela ikhasi lewebhu elithile ngqo ngokuchofoza kusuka kudeskithophu noma kufolda ethi "iziqalisi". Lokhu kungenziwa futhi ngefayela le-.desktop elilula kakhulu.

Indlela evamile ukuzulazula uye kufolda lapho ufuna ukudala khona isiqalisi (isibonelo, ideskithophu yakho noma ifolda enqamulelayo) usebenzisa i-terminal. Bese, ngomhleli wakho wombhalo owuthandayo (i-nano, i-vim, i-gedit…), dala ifayela eliphela ngo-. .desktop:

Vula umhleli: nano ubuntu-es.desktop

Ithempulethi yewebhusayithi: [Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Ubuntu-es
Exec=firefox http://www.ubuntu-es.org
Icon=/home/usuario/Imágenes/Iconos/mi-icono-69x69.png
Type=Application

Kulokhu, Igama lizoba umbhalo owubonayo kusithonjana; e Exec Isiphequluli esizosetshenziswa sichaziwe (isibonelo, firefox) kulandelwa i-URL ofuna ukuya kuyo. Ku Icon Ungacacisa noma yisiphi isithombe se-PNG osiphethe.

Uma ukhathazekile ngobukhulu besithombe, ungasebenzisa amathuluzi afana ne -GIMP ukuze ushintshe usayizi wesithonjana sibe yinto enengqondo (isibonelo, amaphikseli angu-64×64 noma angu-69×69), ngakho awusebenzisi isithombe samaphikseli ayizinkulungwane eziningana ukuze wenze isithonjana esincane nje.

Ezinhlelweni eziningi, amafolda ezithonjana zesistimu (/usr/share/app-install/icons futhi okufanayo) ukukunikeza ukubhekisela kusayizi ojwayelekile kanye nesisindoIzithonjana zama-kilobyte ambalwa, ezinobukhulu obuphakathi, ezilayisha ngokushesha futhi ezingagcwalisi inkumbulo.

Dala isiqalisi se-.desktop sohlelo lwakho lokusebenza noma iskripthi

Isimo esivame kakhulu ukuthi udale iskripthi se-shell (.sh) esisebenza ku-terminal futhi ufuna umndeni wakho, abafundi noma ozakwabo bakwazi ukusisebenzisa ngokuchofoza kabili, ngaphandle kokufaka i-console noma imiyalo yokuthayipha.

Cabanga ngesibonelo sesikripthi sokwenza ama-backups ngaso rsyncIskripthi sibuza umsebenzisi ukuthi ufuna ukukopisha kudrayivu yangaphandle noma kwenye idrayivu, sihlole ukuthi zifakiwe yini, bese siqala ikhophi. Ugcina iskripthi sakho njenge amakhophiFiles.sh kufolda yakho yomuntu siqu.

Ukuze ugweme ukudinga noma yiluphi ulwazi lwe-terminal kubasebenzisi abangebona ubuchwepheshe, ungakha ifayela le-.desktop elisebenzisa iskripthi ngaphakathi kwewindi lekhonsoli . Isibonelo, usebenzisa i-nano:

Dala isiqalisi: nano copiasArchivos.desktop

Isibonelo sesiqalisi: [Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Terminal=true
Name=copiaArchivos
Icon=/home/tuusuario/Imágenes/mi-icono-copia.png
Exec=/home/tuusuario/copiasArchivos.sh

Ezinye izici ezibalulekile zalolu hlobo lwesiqalisi zibaluleke kakhulu ukuqinisekisa ukuthi konke kusebenza njengoba ufuna:

• Uhlobo=Uhlelo Lokusebenza: Kubonisa ukuthi uhlelo lokusebenza olusebenzisekayo, hhayi isixhumanisi noma isiqondisi esilula.
• Itheminali = iqiniso: Iphoqa ukuvulwa kwe-terminal emulator, okudingekayo uma iskripthi sakho sibonisa izinketho, imiyalezo, noma sidinga ukusebenzisana.
• Igama: Yigama elinobungane abasebenzisi abazolibona kumenyu noma kusithonjana.
• Isithonjana: Indlela ephelele eya esithombeni ofuna ukusisebenzisa njengesithonjana; kuyinto ongayikhetha, kodwa isinika ukuthinta kobungcweti.
• I-Exec: indlela ephelele eya kuskripthi (qiniseka ukuthi iskripthi sinemvume yokusebenzisa chmod +x copiasArchivos.sh).

Ngemva kokulondoloza ifayela le-.desktop, ungalihambisa kufolda yezinhlelo zokusebenza zomhlaba wonke ukuze livele kumenyu yesistimu:

sudo mv copiasArchivos.desktop /usr/share/applications

Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi kuqhubeke, uvame ukusesha igama elithi "copiaFichivos" ku-Dash noma ku-application launcher bese ulinamathisela ku-launcher, iphaneli, noma i-dock ngokulihudula. Uma lingaveli ekuqaleni, ngezinye izikhathi ukuphuma noma ukuqala kabusha ikhompyutha yakho kwanele ukuze indawo ikwazi ukulayisha kabusha i-database yesiqalisi.

Kuma-script asebenza ku-terminal, kuvame ukuba wusizo ukwengeza umugqa ekugcineni ukuvimbela ifasitela ukuthi lingavali ngokushesha . Isibonelo:

echo "PULSAR UNA TECLA PARA CERRAR LA VENTANA"
read tecla

Ngale ndlela, ikhonsoli ihlala ivuliwe kuze kube yilapho umsebenzisi ecindezela ukhiye, futhi angabuka kalula imiyalezo namaphutha angaba khona.

Dala izinqamuleli ngesandla kudeskithophu: .desktop ku-~/Desktop

Ngaphezu kokufaka amafayela e-.desktop ku /usr/share/applications noma ku ~/.local/share/applicationskungenzeka beka ngqo iziqalisi kudeskithophu yakhouma nje indawo yakho yezithombe isekela izithonjana zedeskithophu (i-GNOME, i-XFCE, i-KDE Plasma, njll., ngezinketho ezifanele).

Indlela elula kakhulu yokwenza lokhu ukudala ifayela elingenalutho kudeskithophu bese uliqamba kabusha ngesandiso se-.desktop. Isibonelo:

• Dala ifayela elisha kudeskithophu.
• Shintsha igama lento efana nale miPrograma.desktop.
• Yivule ngomhleli wombhalo owuthandayo.

Ithempulethi yedeskithophu: [Desktop Entry]
Name=Nombre del programa
Comment=Comentario opcional sobre el programa
Exec=/home/usuario/Documentos/startup.sh
Icon=/home/usuario/Imágenes/icono.png
Terminal=false
Type=Application

Lapha, I-Exec ikhomba iskripthi noma i-executable ofuna ukuyiqalisa, Icon Kuyinto ongayikhetha (ungayishiya ingenalutho noma umane ushiye umugqa) futhi Terminal=false Kubonisa ukuthi i-terminal ayidingeki, ngaphandle kokuthi uhlelo ludinga ikhonsoli, lapho ungabeka khona true.

Ngemva kokulondoloza ifayela, kuma-desktop amaningi kuzodingeka uye ezimpahleni zalo bese uvumela i-"Execute as a program" noma izimvume ezifanayo ngaphakathi kwethebhu yezimvume. Lokhu kuzoguqula ifayela le-.desktop libe yisiqalisi esisebenzisekayo esikhundleni sedokhumenti yombhalo nje.

Indlela: ~/.local/share/applications

Okubalulekile: Amafayela e-.desktop owabeke lapho Zizothinta i-akhawunti yakho yomsebenzisi kuphela.ngenkathi lezo /usr/share/applications Ziyabonakala kubo bonke abasebenzisi besistimu.

Nika amandla izithonjana kanye neziqalisi kudeskithophu ye-GNOME

Kwezinye izabelo ze-GNOME (njengezinguqulo ezithile ze-Ubuntu), ideskithophu ingase ikhutshazwe ngokuzenzakalelayo , ngaphandle kwezithonjana, amafolda, noma izinqamuleli. Uma ufuna ukudala nokusebenzisa iziqalisi zedeskithophu, kuzodingeka uqale unike amandla lesi sici.

Enye indlela ebonakalayo yokwenza lokhu ukusebenzisa ithuluzi lokulungisa kabusha. Ngokuvamile ungalithola kumenyu njengento efana nale:

Izinhlelo Zokusebenza → Amathuluzi Esistimu → Izintandokazi → Ithuluzi Lokuthinta Kabusha

Ngaphakathi kwaleli thuluzi, bheka isigaba esithi "Ideskithophu" kuphaneli yesobunxele bese uvumela inketho yokubonisa izithonjana kudeskithophu. Ungakhetha futhi ukuthi uzobonisa izinqamuleli kufolda yakho yasekhaya, i-Recycle Bin, ama-drive afakiwe, njll.

Uma ungenalo ithuluzi lokulungisa elifakiwe, ekusatshalalisweni okuningi ungafaka nje iphakheji ye -gnome-tweak-tool noma usebenzise amathuluzi afanayo njenge -ubuntu-tweak , akuvumela nokuthi unike amandla ukuboniswa kwezithonjana kudeskithophu.

Enye inketho, eqondile kancane futhi engenaso isikhombikubona sesithombe, ukusebenzisa umyalo gsettings kusukela ekuhlanganisweni kwezihluthulelo I-ALT + F2 noma kusuka ku-terminal:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons true

Ngalokhu, i-GNOME izophinde ibonise izithonjana futhi uzokwazi ukufaka amafayela akho e-.desktop, amafolda namadokhumenti ngqo kudeskithophu, ngokuwahudula noma ukuwadala kusuka kumphathi wefayela.

Dala iziqalisi ezithuthukisiwe: amafolda enethiwekhi, amakhasi endawo, nezinhlelo ngewayini

Amafayela e-.desktop asekela izinketho eziningi kunezisekelo, ngakho-ke ungakwazi futhi Dala izinqamuleli zezinsizakusebenza zenethiwekhi, amakhasi e-HTML endawo, noma izinhlelo ze-Windows eziqhutshwa newayiniIfomethi ihlala ifana, umugqa ushintsha kakhulu. Exec futhi, kwezinye izimo, ukwengeza Path.

Isibonelo, uma ufuna ukudala isiqalisi kufolda yenethiwekhi eyabiwe usebenzisa i-SMB (Samba), ungasebenzisa ifayela le-.desktop elifana naleli:

Ithempulethi yenethiwekhi: #!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
[Desktop Entry]
Name=CarpetaCompartida
Icon=/usr/share/icons/.../icono.png
Type=Application
Exec=nautilus --browser smb://Servidor/Carpeta
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=false

Lapha, i-Exec iqala umphathi wefayela (i-Nautilus) ekhomba indlela yenethiwekhi . Umsebenzisi udinga ukuchofoza kuphela ukuvula ifolda eyabiwe ngaphandle kokuthayipha indlela ye-SMB.

Ukuze a ukufinyelela ngqo ekhasini lewebhu noma i-HTML yendawoUngaphinda usebenzise isakhiwo esisibonile ngaphambilini, umane ushintshe indawo oya kuyo Exec:

Ithempulethi lendawo: [Desktop Entry]
Name=MiPáginaLocal
Icon=/usr/share/icons/.../icono.png
Type=Application
Exec=firefox "RutaODirecciónDeLaPágina.htm"
Terminal=false

Uma kufika Izinhlelo zeWindows ozenzayo ngeWine (kuvame kakhulu ezincwadini ezindala zedijithali, amathuluzi okufundisa noma izinsiza ezincane), i-.desktop ivame ukufaka nepharamitha Path, okubonisa indlela yokusebenza lapho okusebenzisekayo kutholakala khona:

Ithempulethi yewayini: [Desktop Entry]
Name=ProgramaWindows
Icon=/usr/share/icons/.../icono.png
Type=Application
Path="/ruta/a/la/carpeta/del/programa"
Exec=wine "NombreDelEjecutable.exe" > /dev/null

Ukusetshenziswa kwe Indlela ibaluleke kakhulu lapho kuhlanganiswa izinhlelo noma izikripthi lokho kuncike ekubeni kufolda ethile ukuthola izinsiza zabo (amalabhulali, idatha, njll.). Uma isiqalisi sakho sikhomba kuskripthi se-bash, ungasifaka esikhundleni wine por sh noma sebenzisa iskripthi ngqo uma unemvume yokusebenzisa.

Ungakhohlwa ukuthi, uma usudalile ifayela le-.desktop, kubalulekile ukulinika i-execute permissions . Ungakwenza lokhu kusuka ku-file explorer (chofoza kwesokudla → Izakhiwo → Izimvume → "Vumela i-executing file as program") noma kusuka ku-terminal ene:

Uxolo: chmod +x nombre.desktop

Dala kalula iziqalisi ngezenzo ze-gnome-desktop-item-edit kanye ne-Nautilus

Uma ungafuni ukuhlela amafayela e-.desktop ngesandla, i-GNOME inikeza ithuluzi elilula kakhulu elibizwa ngokuthi i-gnome-desktop-item-edit , elikukhombisa ifomu lesithombe lapho kufanele ugcwalise khona igama, umyalo, isithonjana, njll. kuphela, futhi linakekela ukukhiqiza ifayela.

Qalisa: gnome-desktop-item-edit --create-new /home/profesor/Escritorio

Lokhu kuzovula iwindi lokudala isiqalisi esisha kufolda echaziwe (esibonelweni, ideskithophu yomsebenzisi "kaprofesa"). Lapho ungakhetha, isibonelo, incwadi yedijithali eqaliswe nge-Wine , ungeze into efana nale kumyalo we-Exec:

wine /home/profesor/libros/matematicas1/exeLINUX

Uma ithuluzi lingafakiwe, ungalifaka nephakheji ehambisanayo, isibonelo:

Ukufaka: sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gnome-panel

Ngaphezu kokudala iziqalisi kusukela kulo myalo, ungakwazi hlanganisa inketho ethi “Dala isiqalisi” kumenyu yokuqukethwe kusuka enkinobheni yegundane yesokudla usebenzisa ithuluzi elithi “izenzo ze-Nautilus” (nautilus-actions noma okufana nesimanje ku-distro yakho).

Ngemva kokuyifaka (isibonelo, nge sudo apt-get install nautilus-actions), yivule kumenyu yezinhlelo zokusebenza bese udala isenzo esisha. Ungayinika ilebula yomongo ethi “Dala Isiqalisi” bese, kuthebhu yomyalo, ucacisa into efana nale:

• Indlela: gnome-desktop-item-edit
• Amapharamitha: --create-new %d

Ngale ndlela, ngokuchofoza kwesokudla kudeskithophu noma kufolda, uzoba nenketho eqondile yokuqalisa umhleli wezinqamuleli , ngaphandle kokudinga ukukhumbula imiyalo emide.

Imikhuba emihle kakhulu namaqhinga amancane lapho udala izinqamuleli ku-Linux

Uma uqala ukudala iziqalisi eziningi kanye nezixhumanisi ezingokomfanekiso, kungumqondo omuhle ukulandela imikhuba embalwa emihle ukuze ugweme izinkinga futhi uqinisekise ukuthi konke kusebenza ngokuqhubekayo ohlelweni lwakho.

Okokuqala, zama ukusebenzisa izindlela eziphelele emasimini e-Exec kanye ne-Icon noma nini lapho kungenzeka, ikakhulukazi uma okusebenzisekayo kungaphandle kwezindlela ezijwayelekile (/usr/bin, /usr/local/binnjll.). Lokhu kugwema izinkinga lapho indawo yezithombe ingakwazi ukuthola ifayela eliyi-binary.

Kuyanconywa futhi hlela izikripthi zakho nezinhlelo zasekhaya kuma-directory acacile (isibonelo, /home/usuario/bin o /home/usuario/scripts) futhi ugcine izindlela ezibhekisela kumafayela akho e-.desktop lapho. Ngale ndlela, uma ushintsha imishini noma wenze isipele sencwadi yakho yasekhaya, kulula ukubuyisela ukusebenza kokufinyelela kwakho.

Ngeke kube buhlungu ukuhlola ukuvumelana phakathi kwegama lefayela le-.desktop kanye negama langaphakathiIfayela lingabizwa, isibonelo, Lupa-xmag.desktop, ngenkathi ufaka ngaphakathi Name=Lupa-XmagLezi yizinto ezimbili ezihlukene: igama lefayela lihlobene kakhulu nenhlangano yakho yangaphakathi, futhi igama yilokho ozokubona endaweni yezithombe.

Uma into "ingabonakali" kumenyu noma ekusesheni kohlelo lokusebenza, khumbula ukuthi amanye ama-desktop Bafuna ulwazi lwabaphosiNgezinye izikhathi umane uphume ngemvume, uqale kabusha, noma usebenzise amathuluzi afana update-desktop-database ezinhlelweni eziyisebenzisayo.

Okokugcina, yize ungakha izinqamuleli cishe kunoma yini (izinhlelo, izikripthi, amafolda endawo, izinsiza zenethiwekhi, i-HTML, iWayini, njll.), zama ukugwema ukwethula imiyalo engaba yingozi ngaphandle kokucela isiqinisekiso, ikakhulukazi uma wabelana ngekhompyutha yakho nabasebenzisi abangenalwazi. Ifayela le-.desktop eliklanywe kabi lingasusa amafayela ngephutha noma lenze izenzo ongafuni ukuziphinda.

Ukwazi ukudala izinqamuleli ku-Linux usebenzisa amafayela e-.desktop kanye nezixhumanisi ezingokomfanekiso kukuvumela ukuthi uhlele uhlelo ngendlela efanele ukuhamba komsebenzi wakho : finyelela kalula izikripthi zesipele zamalungu omndeni, uqalise izincwadi zedijithali kuzilungiselelo zemfundo ngokuchofoza okukodwa, uvule izinsiza zenethiwekhi ngaphandle kokukhumbula izindlela eziyinkimbinkimbi, noma uhlanganise i-executable elandiwe ngesandla kumenyu yakho. Uma usuyiqondile le mibono, ukwengeza izithonjana, izinqamuleli, kanye neziqalisi kuba yingxenye yemvelo yesipiliyoni sakho sansuku zonke se-GNU/Linux.
