<p>Applications can install add-ons so they can be invoked easily on a selection of files from Tracker. Only the add-ons that can handle a specific filetype are presented under <i>Add-Ons</i> from the context menu or the <i>File</i> menu of a Tracker window. Some add-ons don't necessarily need a file to work on and are thus always present.
|
|
</p><p>Tracker Add-Ons, or links to applications that can act as add-ons, can be installed in three different locations (see topic <a href="filesystem-layout.html">Filesystem layout</a>):

<tr><td><tt>/boot/home/config/add-ons/Tracker/</tt></td><td> </td><td> for add-ons only available to yourself</td></tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
</p><p>The file name of an add-on can be suffixed with a dash and capital letter, and is then available via keyboard shortcut. For example, <i>Open Target Folder-T</i> opens with <tt>ALT+AltGr+T</tt> (at least with my keymap, you may have a different key combination).<br>
|
|
Of course, you have to take care of possible shortcut collisions when deciding on a shortcut. You can't have the same for different add-ons.
