I have a simple toggle script which should just be executed and not shown and currently I always get a black window with a loading animation which is annoying and not necessary.
The desktop file looks like this:

Code:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=0.1
Name=FMTX Toggle
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Comment=FMTX Toggle
Exec=/home/user/apps/fmtransmtoggle.sh
Icon=terminal
#X-Window-Icon=timerwidget
X-Window-Icon=     
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=false
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

and the script like this:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
fmtx_client|grep disabled > /dev/null
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
   fmtx_client -p 1 > /dev/null
   fmtx_client -f 106900 > /dev/null
   fmtx_client -s "N900    " > /dev/null
   fmtx_client -t "My N900 radio channel" > /dev/null
   echo 118 > /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-2/2-0063/power_level
   echo "RF Enabled @106.90 with power `cat /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-2/2-0063/power_level`"
else
   fmtx_client -p 0
   echo "RF Disabled"
fi
exit 0

Is it also possible to have only a shortcut on the desktop but not in the menu?

Thanks
