[Thunar-dev] Custom actions

[Dani]

Hello André:

Thanks for reply.

When run thunar from terminal, no show nothing.
(Seems to have no verbose mode, as -> $ thunar &)

I have no way of knowing what is going to fail.


This not work for me:

for i in %F; do source=$i; moveTo="/blog_src/"; 
target="${source/\/blog_web\//$moveTo}"; mv "$source $target"; done

If execute in terminal (xfce4-terminal) work fine.


I test with (multi select)

for i in %F; do source=$i; moveTo="/blog_src/"; 
target="${source/\/blog_web\//$moveTo}"; zenity --info --text=$source; 
zenity --info --text=$moveTo; zenity --info --text=$target; done

No show anything

But with this:
for i in %F; do source=$i; zenity --info --text=$source; 
moveTo="/blog_src/"; zenity --info --text=$moveTo; 
target="${source/\/blog_web\//$moveTo}";  zenity --info --text=$target; done

Only show 2 first messages (zenity). That's why I think that when it 
arrives to the part of the replacement 
(target="${source/\/blog_web\//$moveTo}";) it is when it fails.

Very thanks.

Dani
