Recently, Brian explained that I could add 2>/dev/null after a command to eliminate the display of errors that occurs when I just type gwenview filename.jpg. gwenview filename.jpg 2>/dev/null Thanks Brian. That is very helpful. But I would still like to know what might be done to stop all the error messages that the system generates when I just type gwenview filename.jpg (as shown below). Also, is there some additional option I could add to the example script above that would cause the terminal window to close and leave gwenview open? As it is now, the terminal remains open and if I close it, gwenview also closes. Of course, I can open gwenview from the menu to avoid the terminal window, but it would be helpful to be able to execute commands in terminal (and create scripts for certain tasks) that I could execute without leaving a terminal open. ------------------- $ gwenview test.jpg "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.kde.nepomuk.services.nepomukstorage was not provided by any .service files" "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "QLocalSocket::connectToServer: Invalid name" "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.kde.nepomuk.services.nepomukstorage was not provided by any .service files" "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "QLocalSocket::connectToServer: Invalid name" "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.kde.nepomuk.services.nepomukstorage was not provided by any .service files" "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "QLocalSocket::connectToServer: Invalid name" "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.kde.nepomuk.services.nepomukstorage was not provided by any .service files" "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "QLocalSocket::connectToServer: Invalid name" QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory QFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: /home/joe/.config/ibus/bus "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.kde.nepomuk.services.nepomukstorage was not provided by any .service files" "/usr/bin/gwenview(24601)" Soprano: "QLocalSocket::connectToServer: Invalid name" gwenview(24601)/kdeui (kdelibs): Attempt to use QAction "edit_redo" with KXMLGUIFactory! gwenview(24601)/kdeui (kdelibs): Attempt to use QAction "edit_undo" with KXMLGUIFactory! gwenview(24601) Gwenview::ViewMainPagePrivate::setCurrentView: No index found for current view gwenview(24601) KXMLGUI::ActionList::plug: Index 20 is not within range (0 - 19 gwenview(24601) KXMLGUI::ActionList::plug: Index 20 is not within range (0 - 19 gwenview(24601) KXMLGUI::ActionList::plug: Index 20 is not within range (0 - 19 gwenview(24601) KXMLGUI::ActionList::plug: Index 20 is not within range (0 - 19 --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
