Hi Israel,

I updated and installed rev87 (jwm-menu and jwm-menu-common I believe), rebooted and still get same problem with clicking on PCManFM from Apps-Accessories.

Cheers,
JackT.

Ok Jack,
I found/fixed the issue.
It should work extremely well now.

it has built, and soon it should be in the repos soon.
look for revision 87

The technical explanation (in case anyone cares):
The %U is interpreted by most programs as a URL (such as file:///root/fun_text_page.txt) In our case, we do not pass anything into those, so we need to simply ignore the % and the next character. I took the liberty to try to mitigate any risks that might arise from complicated scripts being called from the menu... but there may be some issue we run into at some point with a really bizarre Exec= line in a desktop file.
Until then it should work for everything.
At least it works here just fine.

Hi Jack,

please try running:

rm ~/.cache/jwm-menu.cache appmod appmod.old

jwm-menu

Then reload the desktop this *should* fix the error.

The reason you need to remove these things is that I cache the menu in that file, and watch /usr/share/applications/ for modification. If the directory has been modified the menu will reload.

Since you didn't install anything new the old cache persists, and is used still.
