Talk:DBP file format

Comments from levi

I've changed some words on this page. I hope I'm right, although it's not easy for me to confirm this at present. Specificially I've changed the desciption of the terminal option in the desktop entry.

Also I changed the spelling of the word 'uniq' as part of a 'unique identifier' in the package entry. That leads me to ask, in what scope does this need to be unique; presumably it can't need to be unique compared to stuff not in a dbp, but it's not clear to be whether it needs to only be unique within the scope of this desktop file, or compared to all other dbps.

And why is there an exec option in the desktop entry and one in the package entry? I wonder if this depends whether you launch it from the desktop menu item or by using the scripts to launch a pnd (normally from the terminal).
