Oh sorry, I didn't read the part about a complete rewrite in go. Edit: Was able to replicate for generate-entry as well, so have ported that fix to go templates. |

I noticed some issues when exporting vscode to my host.
Due to not having any of the rootful/enter_flags/sudo_prefix options set, the Exec command of the exported desktop file had too many spaces, not following standards, and causing bemenu to be unable to launch them.
The same issue was present for the extra_flags.
The solution was to use shell parameter expansion instead of just listing the parameters.
Examples before the fix:
Exec=/usr/bin/distrobox-enter -n devel -- /usr/share/code/code %FExec=/usr/bin/distrobox enter develAfter fix:
Exec=/usr/bin/distrobox-enter -n devel -- /usr/share/code/code %FExec=/usr/bin/distrobox enter devel
