Linux: chmod +x possible via GUI?
Question by Guest | 2016-07-12 at 13:14
For making a file respectively script executable, in Linux, you can open the terminal in order to type "chmod +x filename" there.
However, working in the command line has always been annoying me. Isn't there any other possibility to mark files as executable through the graphical user interface (GUI)?

Yes, you can indeed also do that via the GUI. The way leads over the property dialog of the file.
Of course, the expressions may vary depending on the Linux distribution you are using, but for Ubuntu, you can go the following way.
Of course, you can also remove the executable flag with this menu by unchecking the option again.
