Hello,
In Forklift there is an option Tools, which allows to make quick actions.
But i don't really get how to create one.
Fir example a simple one:
Code:
cp $SOURCE_SELECTION_NAMES $TARGET_PATH
/bin/bash cp $SOURCE_SELECTION_NAMES $TARGET_PATH
/bin/bash/cp $SOURCE_SELECTION_NAMES $TARGET_PATH

i tried these three variants but none of them work.

I need some other stuff like this:

Code:
soffice --convert-to odt $SOURCE_SELECTION_NAMES

What should i write? Maybe /bin/bash in the beginning? Still doesn't work.
 
So for the first one, try

Bash:
/bin/cp $SOURCE_SELECTION_NAMES $TARGET_PATH

For the latter one, you ideally would identify the path to `soffice`, however you could also try

Bash:
/usr/bin/env soffice --convert-to odt $SOURCE_SELECTION_NAMES

Thanks!
