[Desktop Action DefaultGPU]
Exec=${installation_prefix}/${VIEWERNAME,,}
Name=Launch on default GPU
Comment=Launch the viewer using the system's integrated GPU, instead of the dedicated one. (if available)

[Desktop Action AssociateMIME]
Exec=${installation_prefix}/etc/register_secondlifeprotocol.sh
Comment=Set this viewer as the default handler for secondlife:// links.
#The above adds some options when the shortcut is right-clicked, to launch on the default (usually integrated) GPU, and to force MIME type association.

#The "PrefersNonDefaultGPU" line should automatically run the viewer on the most powerful GPU in the system, if it is not default. If it is, this is ignored.

# NOTE: DO NOT CHANGE THE "GenericName" FIELD - ONLY CHANGE THE "Name" FIELD. (This is to ensure that searching "Second Life" will show all the viewers installed in a user's system, regardless of their canonical name.)
