Public bug reported: I have a symlink in /usr/bin set up as follows:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Apr 30 07:44 /usr/bin/idea -> /usr/local/idea/bin/idea.sh If I type "idea" into synapse, it pops up a text editor with the text of the script. If I type "/usr/bin/idea" it runs the script. Even if I've typed "/usr/bin/idea" previously, it does not remember that this is a script I run regularly and let me type "idea" in future. I don't want to have to create a .desktop entry for this; it's a command which synapse should be able to pick up and remember.
