How to use several commands in one custom actions command field?

[sojusnik]

If you create a custom action, then you have a "command" field, which usually can be used with one command. But is it also possible to use two or more commands in this field?

I've tried using |, && or ; between two commands, but it didn't work.

Any ideas if this is possible at all?

Hi :)

|, && and ; are shell features. The app simply starts a process with specified args as it's more lightweight.

You could:

• execute shell command sh -c "echo 'hello'; echo 'world'"
• write a script and place it in ~/.local/bin
• add an extra action through the UI

Option "Use SubShell" lets to enter commands like in regular shell
