Hi all, I'm trying to get a list of all installed applications on the system - by "installed", the ones that turn up in the gnome-shell application list will do.
Usually I would use Shell.AppSystem.get_default.get_all() to get this list, but in this case I want to get the list from the prefs.js widget. Hence, I can't use Shell. I also tried using a Gtk.AppChooserDialog but this doesn't show all applications (e.g. the terminal, which I definitely want to show up), and one of the list users (Milan) pointed out to me that this is because the terminal has no MIME types. So, how can I get a list of installed applications from a process outside of the gnome-shell one (no access to Shell, etc)? For example gcampax's Auto Move Windows extension has a prefs dialog where you can select an application to apply a rule to, but it uses Gtk.AppChooserDialog so if I wanted to apply a rule to the Terminal, I wouldn't be able to. cheers _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
