I have just created .desktop file and run it if necessary. It wouldn't
be bad to implement a function "if it is already running, kill it", so
one could end the application without having to have a second icon (i
might as well just do this through a bash). Anyways, as the window
manager was trying to indicate looong startup of rotate (even with
StartupNotify=false ), i run it now like this and get an excellent
result: Exec=/usr/bin/rotate&
