Description Alexey Vladykin 2019-10-18 21:23:28 UTC

Sublime Text does not show up in the file "Open with other application" dialog in GNOME.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right-click any text file in Nautilus
2. Click "Open with other application"

Actual Results:  
"Sublime Text" is not on the list of applications available for opening a file.

Expected Results:  
"Sublime Text" should be on the list and probably as one of recommended applications.

The problem is with the current .desktop file generated for Sublime Text.
Changing Exec=subl3 to Exec=subl3 %F fixes the problem, as explained for example here: http://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2012/06/18/ubuntu-fix-add-program-to-list-of-applications-in-open-with-when-right-clicking-files-in-nautilus/

Fix for similar issue has been contributed to the sublime-text overlay: https://github.com/DamnWidget/sublime-text/pull/11
