Run a Script Shell with double click on Ubuntu

Well an easy way I found as I said, was to create a C program that runs the script and open the terminal.

Code in C: (main.c)

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>

main(void)
{
    system("gnome-terminal --command '/opt/shell.sh'");
}

And then compile with:

gcc -o executal main.c

Then put it on the desktop and the shell.sh in / opt

In Ubuntu 15.04:

Open Nautilus and click the Edit menu in Preferences. In the window that opens, click on the Behavior tab and check one of the options indicated by the arrows.

You can do this by creating a file with a .desktop extension. You must give Run permission by clicking Properties and selecting the appropriate check box. (see picture of answer above). Note that in the Icon option you can specify a valid image file (do your tests), in my example, a folder icon will appear. Must be encoded as UTF-8.

I discovered this on my own, but found some related articles desktop-file and How to create launcher shortcuts on the desktop .

Script:

#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
