I'm having a strange, possibly semi-unique problem. I can add programs to the side bar fine. However, I can't add "executables" (I guess still programs?) and get it to work.
Specifically, I made a folder called "Apps" in my home folder. I like "Sublime Text 2", which is a text editor. There is no .deb file to install, so it just runs by double-clicking a after unpacking it. When I run the program, it starts and runs fine, and shows up on the sidebar.
However, when I do "lock to launcher", it doesn't work right. If I close the program, it stays "pinned", but the icon doesn't open the program. It just pulses, and never opens. If I reboot, the icon becomes a question mark, and it still won't open the program.
Is there a text/config file I can manually add an entry to? In Debian, I just added a new program and pointed to the path of the executable file. I can't seem to figure this out. Thanks!
