On several occasions, myself and others have used the term "LMMS" to search for the launcher to LMMS after installing in Windows. This returns nothing since the application is called "Linux MultiMedia Studio". Is there a possibility to have the installer call the icon "LMMS" and put "Linux MultiMedia Studio" in the description instead? Since the application is most often referred to by it's acronym, I think this will be well received. This may also benefit other Operating Systems. -Tres -- - Tre...@gm... |

That doesn't work for me and I'm running Win Vista. I've just gotten in the habit of hitting the <WinLogo> key to pop up the search bar and type "Lin" or "Linux" and hit <ENTER>. I agree though, Having the shortcut rename to "LMMS" or even something like "LMMS - Linux MultiMedia Studio" would be a good idea.

The fact that it works on Ubuntu is great, however out of the 5 musicians I collaborate with, only one of them is running Ubuntu, and none of them launch applications through the Run dialog. Ubuntu does a match on file name (try gnome-terminal for example. Since this is a feature of the OS, I would still suggest we call the icon LMMS and put "Linux Multimedia Studio" in the description portion of the Windows shortcut, which is all created from the windows installer. -- - Tre...@gm... |
