use Kicker to launch an app on another system via SSH

I need a way to tell the Kicker launcher that the executable is on another system
that I access via SSH

I think the gnome launcher will let you enter a command such as

ssh -X <system-name> /usr/dist/share.....

KDE Kicker seems to only allow "selecting" the exectubale rather than telling it where
to look

Thanks

heres an option.

create any button for any application and place it on your menu. The right click on it and edit the preferences. There you can change the command, name and icon etc.

Another option is to create a "link to application" on the desktop and simply drag and drop the icon over the kicker to create a copy.

Hope this works
