DESKTOP-FILE-VALIDATE(1) General Commands Manual DESKTOP-FILE-VALIDATE(1) NAME desktop-file-validate - Validate desktop entry files SYNOPSIS desktop-file-validate [--no-hints] [--no-warn-deprecated] [--warn-kde] FILE... DESCRIPTION The desktop-file-validate program is a tool to validate desktop entry files according to the Desktop Entry specification 1.5. The specification describes a file format to provide information such as name, icon and description for an application. Such a file can then be used as an application launcher and to display the application in the applica- tions menu. For information about the Desktop Entry specification, see http://freedesk- top.org/wiki/Specifications/desktop-entry-spec. The desktop entry files are commonly called desktop files. OPTIONS The following options are supported: --no-hints Do not output hints about things that might be improved in the desk- top file. --no-warn-deprecated Do not warn about usage of deprecated items that were defined in previous versions of the specification. --warn-kde Warn about usage of KDE extensions to the specification. This in- cludes the use of the KDE Desktop Entry group, of the ServiceTypes, DocPath, Keywords, InitialPreference, Dev, FSType, MountPoint, Read- Only, UnmountIcon keys, or of the Service, ServiceType and FSDevice types.
