Zero2Desktop - add Zero Install programs to your Applications menu
Published by Thomas Leonard
- Overview
This is a Zero Install feed. To add this program to your Applications menu, choose Zero Install -> Add New Program from the Applications menu. e.g. on Ubuntu:
If you don't see this menu item, install the zeroinstall-injector package from your distribution's repository, or from 0install.net.
Drag the feed's URL to the dialog box that appears. Other environments may use other systems. For example, if you are a ROX desktop user, drag the link to AddApp instead.
Alternatively, to run it from the command-line:
$ 0launch http://0install.net/2007/interfaces/Zero2Desktop.xml
The 0alias command can be used to create a short-cut to run it again later.
If you don't have the 0launch command, download it from the 0install.net web-site, which also contains documentation about how the Zero Install system works.
- Full name
- Description
Zero Install provides a way to download and run applications using a full URI to identify them. To make applications easier to run you'll want to create a short- cut in your desktop environment. This program creates a freedesktop.org ".desktop" file, which causes the program to appear in the GNOME or KDE Applications menus.
