Hey,
I wanted to change the Firefox icon, so I navigated to /usr/share/applications and found the file firefox.desktop. However when reading the file i found that it has:
Exec=firefox %u
Icon=firefox
While custom made desktops read:
Icon=/opt/idea-IU-141.1010.3/bin/idea.png
Exec="/opt/idea-IU-141.1010.3/bin/idea.sh" %f
I could replace the icon easily by adding adding path to Icon. But my question is where does the desktop file look for firefox?
How can i find the folder where the image is located? And what do %f and %u mean at the end of the path?
