Thank you for the applet! I had an issue and figured out how to solve it so I'm posting here. *In short, if you're having an issue with notify-send you need to install libnotify-bin.* I'm running Pop_OS! with the Cinnamon desktop. When I add the applet and I click on it a terminal pops up with the text: ------ There was an error creating the child process for this terminal Failed to execute child process “sh -c "echo The applet Script Menu cant run due to missing dependencies. The missing dependencies are: -- notify-send -- ; sleep 1; exec bash"”: Failed to execve: No such file or directory ------ The command "notify-send" isn't working and you can't "sudo apt install notify-send" as that's not a package. However, if you run the command: notify-send "test message" You'll get a message "Command 'notify-send' not found, but can be installed with: sudo apt install libnotify-bin" Simply install libnotify-bin with "sudo apt install libnotify-bin" Now you can run the notify-send command above again and you should see the notification in the corner of your screen. Reload the applet and it works! I hope this helps someone.

Very useful! I use it daily. Being able to simply have a target folder and subfolders to populate menu items takes the burden of having to create entries for each item. I was looking for something that wasn't bound to the system application menu. I think the only wish list item I'd have were if the sub-menus were hover fly-outs, but maybe that's a big undertaking.

Arrow keys works in the menu, great! However when I press enter on a menu item, it does nothing.

Still using it every day for backup, viewing log files, ripping DVD's, show IP addresses, view webcams, etc.

Great applet. A useful feature would be the ability to configure the default behaviour on a per script basis. For example there are some scripts that I would like to Execute Silently while some are Execute in Terminal. It is not obvious how to configure that in the applet. Though a simple solution is to have separate instances of the applet for terminal execution and silent execution.

Good applet. This should be in the standard Cinnamon. Thank you, Pau Capó!

Genialny applet, pozwala czytelnie pogrupować w podfolderach skrypty w dowolnie wybranym miejscu na dysku i bajecznie łatwo je wywoływać z traya.

Works great, and can be very useful for advanced shortcuts :)
