I'm a graphic designer who usually has several applications open at once, like Gimp, Inkscape, Files, and XnConvert. It gets tedious to open each of them one by one every day. On my Mac, I would use Automator for this, but I'm not sure what the best method is on Linux. I've heard about creating a shell script, but I could use some guidance.

You could definitely write a script to open all your apps, and then create a desktop launcher for it. This way, you can have it show up in your application menu for easy access. It's a pretty straightforward method!
That sounds great, but how do I find the correct filenames for the applications? Do you think File Manager will actually be labeled 'file manager'? Just not sure where to start.
