This is by design because I wanted to keep the installer with the minimum options and dialogs. So I don't know if I want to change it, but if I do I'd like better to add a shortcut in the start menu top level and not in a separate dir.
Feel free to provide a patch.

I wont be providing a patch. However as a workaround those wanting this can choose Desktop Shortcut. Then go to Start Menu and right click All Programs
and choose Open
. This will open the folder where you can move the shortcut.

No patch, no joy, unfortunately.

@XhmikosR seeing as you are the one who wrote the code for the desktop shortcut, it seems strange to put it mildly that you are demanding a patch. I have noticed you doing this to other users as well.
If you require this from everyone thats your right, but the best person to make the patch would be you, seeing how by your own admission you could have already wrote it when you were coding the desktop shortcut, and chose not to.

This is open source. You can't except others to do everything for you.
from notepad2-mod.
@XhmikosR nor can you.
from notepad2-mod.
Exactly, but I wasn't the one who came here asking.
from notepad2-mod.
@XhmikosR no, but by your actions you are essentially asking everyone to write the software for you. Good game.
from notepad2-mod.
I'm not asking for anything. People come here asking. I don't have to provide anything new, the software works as it is for my needs. So if you need something more do it yourself like I did with Notepad2-mod.
Read a little bit about open source because clearly you are one of those guys who expects everything from the others.
from notepad2-mod.
@XhmikosR as are you.

Says the guy who hasn't contributed anything.

If you spent less time on arguing you would have seen I already committed a patch for this since this morning.
But whatever.

Without getting too involved in this debate, i think that choosing to have the issue tracker enabled on a repo here implies that the maintainer is open to at least some form of collaboration, not just in the form of pull requests. Responding negatively to real issues with "no patch, no joy" does come off as a "fuck you" on Github. Github is not just open source, it's open source collab. I think the options are either to be nice to users who report real issues or just disable the issue tracker entirely and leave all the discussion to pull-request comments. my $0.02.
than being said, i do use notepad2-mod myself and appreciate the work you put into it.
from notepad2-mod.
Well, this project is based on other people's contributions; without them it would be Notepad2.
It's impossible for one person to do everything. And it's so easy asking for things. The issue tracker is open because of the potential bugs, I personally ignore the feature requests because I don't have the knowledge or the time to do them.
