I've got a new machine running Ubuntu 14.4 today, and I installed Eclipse by downloading and unzipping it.
Now I would like to be able to:
- run the command
eclipse
in the terminal to open Eclipse; - search for it using Alt+F2 and typing "eclipse".
I added the eclipse directory in the path environment, this solved my requirement (1).
Eclipse has a .desktop
file, so it can be put into to the
launcher. But I still can't use Alt+F2 to open the command "screen"
and find it by typing eclipse
. Is there any procedure I have to
follow so Ubuntu finds the Eclipse in the "run a command" screen just
like it finds Firefox, with an icon and everything?
Also, what is the screen that appears after pressing Alt+F2 called?
