Bug ID: 474207 Summary: Provide a scripting API to run arbitrary commands Classification: Plasma Product: kwin Version: 5.27.7 Platform: Archlinux OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: scripting Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: niuchang...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY KWin Scripts lack an API to run arbitrary commands/applications. I did a simple search and found at least 4 people in reddit had asked the same question and did not find out a way to do so. I see there was a way to call dbus service `org.kde.klauncher5` to execute commands. But this service is unavailable in my system. And as this post https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=455515 says, it was deprecated and removed.
