Re: [kde] krunner question

Typically when I go to start something from krunner (I'll use konsole as
the example), what happens is it finds two things: konsole.desktop in
your XDG dirs (i.e. a menu item named "Konsole"), and an executable
program in $PATH named "konsole". The former should have a "correct"
icon while the latter will be a gear (the generic 'executable' icon).
Most likely Konsole.desktop will invoke the same 'konsole' that is in
$PATH, so it shouldn't matter which you pick. However, the second one in
that case is "run konsole", and the first (for me, anyway) is "Konsole:
terminal".

This way, when one types in "terminal" in krunner only the konsole icon should
appear and not the gear icon (unless you also have a command line program by
the same name ;)
