ubuntu creates Matlab shortcuts
Installed Matlab under ubuntu, it is too troublesome to go into the command line every time to start, I built a shortcut, a lot of online information
However, when I set it up, I went to /usr/share/applications and set up Matlab.desktop with the touch command
Copy the following code in with vim or gedit open
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Matlab
GenericName=Matlab 2014b
Comment=Matlab:The Language of Technical Computing
Exec=/usr/local/MATLAB/R2014b/bin/matlab
Icon=/usr/local/MATLAB/Matlab.png
Terminal=true
StartupNotify=true
Categories=Development;Applications;Office;
Exec and Icon are mainly modified, Exec is the directory where Matlab is installed, Icon is the directory where the icon is located, and terminal is all set to false, terminal=false, which is not possible under my computer, so terminal is set to true, so the shortcut can run normally, for unknown reasons.
When you're done, don't forget to give Matlab.desktop permission with the chmod command.
