~/MyDocs python wol.py

Is there a way or create a file so that i just execute it and run instead of typing in Xterm ?

Create a file in /usr/share/applications/hildon named wol.desktop with this content

Code:

Encoding=UTF-8
Name=WOL
GenericName=Wake On Lan
Exec=osso-xterm 'python ~/MyDocs/wol.py'
Icon=terminal
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
