Create a new folder keyboard shortcut

[tojulius]

Hi there I am running Kubuntu with Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. I'd like to know if there is a way to assign a keyboard shortcut to create a new folder in my desktop. I explored the system settings> keyboard and mouse>keyboard shortcuts and went through the options but nothing

Right click desktop > Create New > Folder


OR


K > System Settings > Accessibility --> Input Actions:

Press Global Settings -> New Group > My Actions (or whatever)

Click My Actions > New Action > Create New Folder (or whatever)


General tab
Action type: Keyboard Shortcut -> Command/URL (simple)

Keyboard Shortcut tab
Select keyboard shortcut: Alt+F (or whatever))

Command/URL Settings tab
Command/URL to execute:

mkdir ~/Desktop/`kdialog --title "New Directory" --inputbox "Directory name"`

Press Apply


Note
or whatever is your choice


So when you press Alt+F (or whatever):
