File manager - can I set it to run a command on selected files
#1
Hi.

I often use LL when I manage my photo and video collection. I like to have control over the files last modified date, so if I have say converted an image into another format that new image file format would have set file modification date to the time when converted.

Therefore I manually use terminal and uses the touch command to (for the sake of example I put this name) make photograph.webp get the same modified date as photograph.jpg.
Code:
touch photograph.webp -dr photograph.jpg
This works for me, but I want to find out if there is possible to do this directly from file manager.

My idea is to set it up somehow so that in file manager I can select two files, and somehow have a menu that call on a command that involve the path of the two files.

Is this possible?
I won't let an old, but fully functional computer die just because some company tell me that they won't make no more security updates to their OS. Thanks Linux Smile
