Description

Terry asked for a few options to the contextual menu (When you right-click a file):

  • Edit with vim (or rather Edit with Kwrite)
  • E-mail file as an attachment
  • Burn to disk

Maybe this will have to be integrated to the PBI Creator. For instance when you create a K3B PBI, you will have to add this contextual menu that will pass the path of the file to K3B as an argument, etc...

Definitely "Edit with Kedit" - very useful for instance for those who want to look at the PBI installation script before installing

My request: When right-clicking on the desktop icon of an installed PBI program, having the option to "uninstall" the PBI

Just realised I didn't describe properly what I meant in the previouse reply:

"Definitely "Edit with Kedit" - very useful for instance for those who want to look at the PBI installation script before installing"

I mean: when you right click on a downloaded PBI, I'd like to see an option to "view PBI install script" and "view PBI remove script"

Yes, it makes more sense, as the binary file shouldn't open in a text editor.

Some of these are already done. If you have K3B installed, you can right-click and "add to CD", also you can always right-click and do "open with kedit" or some such for a text file.

As for the PBI specific stuff, I did add the "extract" option precisely for that, so you can view scripts and such. I'm not sure how I would do a right-click to view script specifically, since thats embedded into the tar data of the PBI file, and would be a pain to pull out. It would essentially do the same thing, just extracting the PBI.
