Custom action not working

This is not working correctly. It works If I remove the last 2 commands.

ls  %n > list.txt | geany list.txt | sleep5 | rm list.txt

Re: Custom action not working

It stops after the failed sleep5. Use sleep 5

But you don't want to piping there anyway. Try this:

ls  %n > list.txt | geany list.txt && sleep 5 && rm list.txt
