Command to start program in menu

[von Stalhein]

Hello all,
I've added a program to my menu items, but I can't get it to start.

It's a shell script.

I put it in the menu via the applications>edit menus but I don't understand what the command line should be.

The file name is cod.sh
If I want to run it from the CLI it goes

sh cod.sh

but I'm not sure how to do that in the menu dialogue.

TIA

I did a bit of fiddling, and what I had to do was put "sh" before the shell script location.

eg. the file was in /home/xxxx/check, so the code became

sh /home/xxxx/check/cod.sh

In case you're interested:

if you add:

#!/bin/sh

to the top line of the script

and type:

chmod u+x /home/xxxx/check/cod.sh

you don't need the "sh" at the beginning.
