Is there a way to start Phex without the Terminal in Linux?

It gets a little annoying, going to the terminal every time I need to start Phex. Also, you need to leave the terminal open so it wouldn't close.

Is there a way to create a shortcut or something?

Thanks in advance


I'm using KDE

How did you install it?

For me alt-f2 -> "phex" works (in Gentoo with KDE). But that's cheating, since it's in effect a commandline, too

If you use the svn version, just click the file "build-and-run" (you might have to make it executable before that). It first builds Phex from sources and starts it afterwards.

You can also create a file in the downloaded folder containing the lines:
---begin file---
#!/bin/sh
cd lib && java -ea -Xmx128m -jar phex.jar
---end file---

Make it executable (chmod +x <filename>) and click it.

I hope this helps you!
