I don't see why the .desktop file is important. If you want to use emacsclient, I think you need Emacs running as a daemon. In my Fedora installation I find: /usr/lib/systemd/user/emacs.service If things work as they should, enable the service with systemctl and you _should_ find emacs offered as an editor choice. -- Dan Espen
