It was telling me can't find 'gnome-terminal'! It tried to run it, but showed an error which became the final solution to my problem. So, I have the executable 'open-terminal-here' in the folder '.config/caja/scripts/'. Now, just for curiosity I tried to run this executable from my home folder from the terminal. However, I forced to make it an executable again by running the command chmod +x. I realized that the file we made in the scripts folder 'open-terminal-here' is supposed to be an executable initially. Now, technically the shortcut is written and it should work, but it was not :( At some point, I think I have also used it, in the beginning, I was able to save changes properly. In that case, try to follow the steps explained here in this page. However, from the previous post I mentioned it seems like some people will still have problems editing the file, it gets rewritten automatically. I used both since I was not sure which will work better. But I kept caja all processes killed while doing this using the commands pkill -KILL caja While saving this file, I had no problem. Now, the line looks like this: (gtk_accel_path "/ScriptsGroup/script_file:\\s\\s\\shome\\sUSERNAME\\s.config\\scaja\\sscripts\\sopen-terminal-here" "F4") I used "F4" (this is because I am used with it from Opensuse) Now, inside the bracket in the second quote, I put the shortcut I needed. So I found this line (gtk_accel_path "/ScriptsGroup/script_file:\\s\\s\\shome\\sUSERNAME\\s.config\\scaja\\sscripts\\sopen-terminal-here" " ")Īnd removed the ':' and space at the end of the line Here in this file all lines starts with a semicolon( ), and I learnt that that means it is a commented line. Then as suggested in the next step I went to folder '.config/caja/' and opened the file named 'accels' using vim(or any other editor) in this file I could see the line about making a shortcut to open terminal in current directory and I was surprized. # You need to have caja-actions installed to use scripts.
# Put this file in your ~/.config/caja/scripts/ directory. # Distributed under the terms of GNU GPL version 2 or later # This script opens a gnome-terminal in the current directory. But I saw that this folder is already there in my computer and the same text they asked me to write is written there too. In this website I found them asking me to make a file named 'open-terminal-here' in the folder '.config/caja/scripts/'. My file manager is Caja, and I am running Ubuntu-Mate. I found a solution to my problem, posting it here!
