"SendTo" actions for Trinity

Hello

I just made a little script to install 'SendTo' servicemenu actions for Trinity DE - konqueror (& dolphin trinity if installed).
This is a part of my q4osXpack project, but I made this little installer if you just want this feature and not the whole pack

Once installed, you will have 'send to Desktop/Documents/Compressed folder/USB storage/Cloud' actions when you right click a file (or multiple selected files), like you are maybe used to in ms windows for example.

When you select "Send to USB device", if only one usb storage device is connected it will use it, if multiple choices are possible, it will ask you what storage device you want to use.

For the 'Send to <cloud>' options, you need to have rclone installed, and at least one remote configured. (not the subject of this post, but I can explain how to proceed if you want)

Then, type conf_sendtorem.sh from a terminal and follow the instructions to create a new entry. You can create as much entries as you want, with different remotes or different paths on a same remote depending on your needs.

The scripts are en/fr/de/ru localized

#How to install:

simply download the installer script, set it executable:
sudo chmod +x setup_sendto.sh
and launch it:  sudo ./setup_sendto.sh

Not sure if you've got this or not but I had a Send to Email service menu set up a while back https://www.q4os.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=2059

Hey, this is a good idea, didn't think of that as I don't use anymore mail clients since a long time (only using web versions), but you're right, this could be handy
And you gave me an idea: I think I will make a script to configure exactly what actions you want in this menu, and there will be an option to add "send to mail" if needed. For this task, I need to list let's say the 'common' mail clients and check how to do this with each of them, shouldn't be too difficult. And you gave me the command for thunderbird, that's one done

Re: "SendTo" actions for Trinity

Thunderbird user here (Betterbird, actually) so that enhancement will be more than welcome.

BTW, one of the readiest uses I can think of is as a web annotating resource -- selecting text on a page and emailing it to yourself, after adding its source URL.
