The ''gnome-exe-handler'' program is invoked by |
| |
|
22 |
applications that try to launch executables in Unix but do |
| |
|
23 |
not have the execution permission bit set. The are |
| |
|
24 |
classified as ELF or A.OUT executables by the MIME |
| |
|
25 |
system. |

''gnome-exe-handler'' Would let the user double click on |
| |
|
29 |
an application and if the user confirms the action, change |
| |
|
30 |
the permissions automatically for him and then launch the |
| |
|
31 |
application. This is particulary useful when downloading |
| |
|
32 |
software from the network, as Unix will not transfer the |
| |
|
33 |
execution permissions. This simplifies the number of steps |
| |
|
34 |
that a novice user has to take to run software from the |
| |
|
35 |
net. |
