--- Comment #8 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
Thank you, that's very helpful. I can reproduce the bug now with git master of
KF6 too. The exact error message I see in the journal log is:

> kf.kio.gui: "Could not find the program ''/home/nate/Markdown Tools/foo.sh''"

Looks like some bad quoting, maybe? When I open the .desktop file that I
constructed, I see the following:

> Exec=''\\''/home/nate/Markdown Tools/foo.sh'\\'''

If I remove the excess quotes and backslashes and change it to this:

> Exec='/home/nate/Markdown Tools/foo.sh'

Then it works. Méven, would you be able to take a look here?
