Hi guys,
I'm trying to create a hotkey via the lxhotkey-programm for the midnight commander.
I tried following command-lines:
1. mc => not working
2. lxsession-default terminal mc => not working
3. /usr/share/applications/mc.desktop => "Couldn’t run /usr/share/applications in child process: Permission denied"
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

Re: lxhotkey + Midnight Commander => can not get this to work
I never use lxhotkey because I always edit rc.xml directly but I'm pretty sure all you need to supply is a working command.
If it needs to be executed in a terminal (like mc), you either need a command that launches the terminal, and then mc in it, or maybe lxhotkey has a checkbox for "run in terminal".
If it doesn't , these commands could work:
Always try the command manually before using it in lxhotkey.

Code: Select all
lxterminal -e mc
xterm -e mc
