How add a launcher to the apps menu for an app that runs from a script?

Very, very crude solution - but works:

  • open the songkong.sh for editing
  • add as the first line the cd command to change directory to where YOU actually put it

as I said above:

so I added as the first line:
cd /home/username/song/songkong

That’s it. Now your launcher should work.

First try from command line - call it with the full PATH.

This is not universal, but specific to where/which directory you chose to put it.

In your case, the first line would probably have to be:
cd /home/username/.local/bin/songkong

(not in front of the line - as a separate first line)
