GNOME Desktop Shortcut

Just another note about this. See previous also.

Create in user Desktop folder

```bash $ cat crypto-report.desktop [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Exec=/home/rrosso/scripts/crypto-report.sh Name=crypto-report GenericName=crypto-report Comment=run crypto-report script Encoding=UTF-8 Terminal=true Type=Application Categories=Application;Network;


Script
------

```bash
$ cat ~/scripts/crypto-report.sh 
#!/bin/bash

commands () {
    cd /TANK/DATA/MySrc/crypto-totals-api
    python3 consolidated-crypto-report.py
    $SHELL # keep the terminal open after the previous commands are executed
}

export -f commands

gnome-terminal --profile=crypto-report -- bash -c "commands"

NOTE: May have to right click on shortcut on the desktup and allow to tun.
