Re: [Gambas-user] Gambas Software Farm in revision #6676

As far as I know from KDE 3 and 4,

the .desktop files are stored in ~/Desktop. On my system, 
firefox.desktop is the only one residing in ~/.local/share/applications 
and there is a copy of it in ~/Desktop.

By the way, the farm is a very good idea!

And it reminded me of your idea of a simple picture editor. I needed 
such a thing this weekend, but in lack of other software I used Gimp 
instead which is a bit of a functional dinosaur for just cutting an area 
from a smartphone photo and reducing the resulting picture to a smaller 
size...

Thinking about your idea, I came to the point where it should be 
possible to just "install" such a program, with all dependencies (and 
the Gambas interpreter itself) installing automagically.

As far as I understand, your farm will work like this. The only thing 
I'm not clear about is if you intend the farm to be for people just 
using the software or for potential Gambas programmers who want to take 
a look at the code?
