Starting scripts out of the gui

  1. 2011-12-16 09:34:01 PST
    I use a Car-PC with Debian "Squeeze" with some additional hardware (cam, phone, gps, umts-stick...) I would like to start a (shell-)script out of the gui. E.g. for launching xawtv to take a smooth look into my backdrive-cam, the phone-app to start a call, musikplayer and so on. Doing this by speech should work anymore (with "simon") but that's another thread...

    Hi, you can do it with a button like this: <osd enabled="yes" type="button" x="x-pos" y="y-pos" h="height" w="width" command='spawn("argument") src"path to icon file" > (All in one line) argument can be a bash script or something. I tried a complete single command line, but this don't work. So you have to use a script. Regards, Holli
