I'm trying to use Servo as a daily driver. I like to pin the most often used apps to the my taskbar (Dash to Panel in Gnome). I also launch apps from the menu (Arc Menu). Adding a .desktop file make it show up in the menu. I could not get pinning to work until I set the name with `winit`. This is because the name is used to match it with the icon. I used the Gnome Looking Glass (lg) command to determine that the name was not set. Testing: I followed the instructions that I put in the .desktop file. I copied the .desktop file to the right folder, set up a link to the svg icon, and adjusted the paths to point to the compiled executable. --------- Signed-off-by: Michael Mc Donnell <michael@mcdonnell.dk>

# You can use this file to get a menu entry on Linux and so you can pin Servo to your taskbar.

#
|
|
# Steps:
|
|
# 1. Create the applications folder if it doesn't exist:
|
|
# mkdir -p ~/.local/share/applications/
|
|
# 2. Copy this file:
|
|
# cp org.servo.Servo.desktop ~/.local/share/applications
|
|
# 3. Edit the copied file and replace the two SERVO_SRC_PATH occurrences
|
|
# with the path to the Servo sources.
|
|
# 4. Create the icons folder if it doesn't exist:
|
|
# mkdir -p ~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps
|
|
# 5. Create a link for the icon:
|
|
# ln -s servo.svg ~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/servo.svg
