Thanks for the suggestion, the only problem I can think of is that we
cannot use environmental variables such as $HOME or $XDG_DATA_HOME or
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME in the Desktop Entry. How can I specify Exec or Path
for each user? Is the hard coded path the only way to specify such as
/home/user1/.... /home/user2 .....?
Thank you.
Kind regards.
