Ha! Sorry. I would not have put a sender address so not to be identified. But clearly, without a destination address, there is not much that could be done.

I thought this would have made a nice Christmas gift.

It is much safer to open a script file in a text editor by default than to execute by default, right?

Absolutely!

You can send some to me. We are talking about non-executable scripts right?

Lol brokenman

And what about encrypting the script into the form of parsley?

Oh, you prefer popcorn.

Hahaha! Just waiting for you guys to come up with a decision. I don't want to contaminate this healthy and funny discussion you're having

We might vote on that. As I wrote, since the begining of porteus, scripts could be activated from a double click. There has never been law suits.

However, donald, brokenman and you fulalas are the experts.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm afraid I have to decline.
It would be discovered with great certainty at the import and my peaceful life
would be massively disturbed if the police stormed into my apartment at 5 a.m. to arrest me.

donald... are you the real Donald Trump? You either troll him or at least are pulling his leg.

It seems that Kulle proposition to run a script from thunar does not work no more:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/home/guest# xfconf-query --channel thunar --property /misc-exec-shell-scripts-by-default --create --type bool --set true
Failed to init libxfconf: The connection is closed.
root@porteus:/home/guest#

What is going on here?
Thanks.

Hi francois ,

you must not run this command as root

@kulle:
Clearly it does not work anyway. Neither in guest mode.

I will use donald's procedure.

Thanks.

Hi Francois,
It works for me in guest mode:
in Porteus 5.0 Xfce and also in Porteux Xfce 4.16.
Why isn't it working for you?!
