Well I have a few lines of code that i'd like to execute whenever i double click it but I don't know what extension to use and how to do it, can someone help me. I also want it to not be dependent on using some coding in the terminal to get it started, only a double click thing.

I don't follow how you'd catch a double click in a terminal.

do you mean you want to write a bash script which fires whenever you double click? double click your desktop, a window, anything?

no i want to make a file with some terminal codes so that when i double click my created file, it opens terminal and runs the code i want it to without me having to do so.

ooh!
ok no problem.

create the file...

Code:

#!/bin/bash
xterm &

chmod u+x filename
or chmod 755 filename

double click from your filemanager and yo'ure good to go.

I do that and nothing happens.
Im using it to start my folding client. so the commands im using are:

Code:

cd ~/home/penguin/folding/FAH/
chmod +x FAH504-Linux.exe
./FAH504-Linux.exe

and it as:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
cd ~/home/penguin/folding/FAH/
chmod +x FAH504-Linux.exe
./FAH504-Linux.exe

but it's still not working.

Oh, I can't use it to start the client off my desktop?
