If the script is executable it should also be executed when being clicked on.
Try creating a "link to application" icon on the desktop pointing to the
script.
However, there are a couple if things you should be aware of:
- the script's working directory will be $HOME by default
- the environment might differ as a shell in Konsole reads additional shell
configuration files due to being an interactive shell
Cheers,
