8 8 great Though I would like to be able to get which file I right clicked on in the bash script, not just the location, because I want to create my own "upload file to X".

"$1" contains the current location + the file you clicked

for example: if you click on a file called "document.txt" in your home directory

"$1" is equal to: "/home/username/document.txt"

you can also get only the file name using basename

Name=$(basename "$1" )

in this case $Name is = "document.txt"

practical example:
you can use

###
#!/bin/bash
libreoffice --headless --convert-to pdf "$1"
###
to convert the clicked file from odt to pdf

you can download my example script from the files section for some basic stuff.

if you have any suggestions to improve my service menu, let me know and thanks for voting.

Remember to use double quotation marks or you may have problems with files that have space in the name

for example :

write
upload "$1" to X

and not
upload $1 to X
