how to create a script/application launcher in task bar ?

Postby vmunich » Jul 13th, '23, 10:17

Hi everyone,

I regularly do the following task:
open a console, do 'su' to login as root, mount a samba drive, exit the console...

I would like to have a simple button or launcher in the task bar (Mageia 8, Plasma), which could be clicked and would do all the above automatically...

I can't find a way to do this !

Any idea ?!

Thank you
Vincent

Why don't you simply configure the samba share in dolphin to be able to simply click it to mount it ? There's no need to worry about some script or launcher that way ...
