# Unity Launcher Shortcuts
|
|
|
|
In Unity, you can add custom entries to its launcher via modifying the
|
|
`.desktop` file, see [Adding Shortcuts to a Launcher][unity-launcher].
|
|
|
|
__Launcher shortcuts of Audacious:__
|
|
|
|
![audacious][audacious-launcher]
|
|
|
|
Generally speaking, shortcuts are added by providing a `Name` and `Exec`
|
|
property for each entry in the shortcuts menu. Unity will execute the
|
|
`Exec` field once clicked by the user. The format is as follows:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Actions=PlayPause;Next;Previous
|
|
|
|
[Desktop Action PlayPause]
|
|
Name=Play-Pause
|
|
Exec=audacious -t
|
|
OnlyShowIn=Unity;
|
|
|
|
[Desktop Action Next]
|
|
Name=Next
|
|
Exec=audacious -f
|
|
OnlyShowIn=Unity;
|
|
|
|
[Desktop Action Previous]
|
|
Name=Previous
|
|
Exec=audacious -r
|
|
OnlyShowIn=Unity;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Unity's preferred way of telling your application what to do is to use
|
|
parameters. You can find these in your app in the global variable
|
|
`process.argv`.
