Re: Probably should have been posting here

Hello, thanks for sharing.
Yes, you can remove all compiz packages (which aren't part of XFCE btw so I'm not sure why you even had them there).

I'd be interested to hear how you improved Firefox performance.

Re: TRASH not working for second drive

Ah yes, that's a very old discussion. There are reasons for or against doing it like that. FWIW, it _should_ work on an ext4 drive, so check this: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/448886 or this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/nwilpd/how_to_enable_move_to_trash_for_external_hard/ Also look...

Re: How to make PCManFM to always show the tab bar?

If someone stumbles upon this looking for an answer: It's in PCManFM's Preferences: Edit => Preferences => Layout => User Interface => Always show tab bar and there is no problem with PCManFM on Arch (at least not this problem). It turned out the Arch drunkards have broken something badly and the wh...

Re: "Open With" Context Menu - Bash Commands Topic is solved

This shouldn't be necessary. Did you mark ~/.local/bin/grepper executable, as I pointed out earlier?

Re: "Open With" Context Menu - Bash Commands Topic is solved

At any rate, I think you're saying now I should write a script. If that's the only way I can do it, I'll take a pass. I don't use scripting often enough to remember all the rules. That's BS.

Did you ever read the links I provided to you in my first reply?

Show us what you have so far. The actual code.
It sounds to me like you want to launch an interactive shell script that does what you want. One that you would need to write. That would be launched by your filemanager action.
