[chirp_users] Ubuntu Launcher

Oops, I thought I was communicating with Rich email to email.
But, here is a cleaned up version of my post to this list, I was in a hurry 
when I wrote it earlier, and here's my clearer version of my launching Chirp 
problem.

Hi All,
I have chirp installed on  Ubuntu-Mate, 18.04.
I installed an older Chirp because it works with my screenreader.
The installed launcher does not work, but if I run chirpw in a terminal, it
runs.
Or I can type in the terminal:
/usr/bin/chirpw
and it runs fine too.
./chirpw does not work in this case.
I have been trying to make a desktop launcher to do this, so I don't have to
launch it in a terminal.
I tried to make a desktop launcher,  but it does not work, no errors, and no
launching of chirp.
Any ideas why I can launch it in a terminal, but not in a desktop launcher?
Thanks.

Glenn

Linux is different from windows in some ways, but once you get an
application launched, it is just like Windows.
It has a desktop like windows, you will see tomorrow.

hi Glenn… I am embarrassed to say, this is all over my head. Hopefully
someday it will all make sense.
Rich.
