[Goodies-dev] Using shell to launch commands in Verve

[Isaac Schemm]

Bug 6500 (https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6500) is a request 
for adding alias support to Verve. I can do this easily by having Verve 
run commands through the shell defined in the $SHELL variable, but I'm 
not sure whether this could cause other problems.

I can think of three options for tackling this:

  * Run all commands through $SHELL (of course, only after checking for
    email, URL, directory, etc.)
  * Try running commands directly, and run through $SHELL if that fails.
  * Add a configuration option for whether to use $SHELL or not. (I
    don't want to clutter up the panel properties window unless there
    would be a reason to turn this option off, though.)

Anybody have any suggestions?
Isaac
