Hi altogether, What I want to achieve is create a /context-menu/ (rightclick)-entry for scanning files with the *clamscan*-command.
For ubuntu there is a tool called _"nautilus-actions_". With it one can create right-click-entries. The most important settings are under the tab "command". So I configured it this way: path: xterm parameter: -fa 'Monospace' -fs 12 -hold -e clamscan %f working directory: %d The parameter options are thus: -fa 'Monospace' -fs 12 (setting font and font-size) : -hold (preventing xterm from shutting down immediately) : -e (executing the following command within xterm) : clamscan %f ((first) filename) Actually this works very well. When right-clicking on the file to be scanned and clicking on the respective label (I called it "Dateiscannen") a separate xterm-window opens and after the scan is finished the result is displayed until I manually close the xterm-window. Yet I´ve noticed that I can also scan folders with that command (but not recursively of course, due to the very nature of the specified command). It´s always said that everything can be considered to be a file in Linux. So theoeretically a folder is a file as well and therefore the /"%f"-parameter/ should be fine for scanning folders, too. My question is: Am I right in thinking so or should I use another option than "%f" or folder-scan? Thanks a lot in advance. Greetings Rosika P.S.: system: Lubuntu 16.04.5 LTS, 64 bit
