I want to create an item in the dock so that when I click, it creates a terminal into another computer. So I did something like this: in .local/share/applications/XXX.desktop put
[Desktop Entry]
Name=XXX
Comment=ssh to XXX
Exec=gnome-terminal --title=XXX -- ssh XXX.com
Icon=gnome-terminal
Type=Application
Terminal=false
X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=xdiagnose
And then I made it a favorite using "Activities". The problem is this. When I click on it, it puts a red dot to the left of a different terminal icon, not the icon for this entry. So I don't know how many instances of this application I have open.
