I don't wish to open terminal each time to execute my shell script. Is it possible assign a keyboard shortcut to execute the shell script I have created?

- Go to System Settings -> keyboard -> shortcuts.
- Click on
+
to add a custom shortcut.Name it anything. - In the command box type
gnome-terminal -e "path_of_script"
. Make sure your script has executable permission.
Also if you want your gnome-terminal should remain open after executing the script, add read
at the last of your script.

4Thanks. I got the same answer. But You don't really need to type the gnome-terminal stuff into the command box. Instead just specify the path. It works! :) Sep 18, 2014 at 8:47
