[Gambas-user] Shell or DesktopFile.RunExec()

[PICCORO McKAY Lenz]

well i guess desktoip file its to support the desktop entry's so it's
normal that args[1] will be the command that the desktop file wil have
in the "exec" line and no more

while in shell each args are well defined...


if not it's a bug in desktop file.. but i guess not!
