Run script from Catalog?

I've moved computers, I swear I had this working on my old installation, but can't figure it out now. I'm now using 18.80.

I had a few scripts which I think were in a catalog. I had it set up so that when I clicked the script, it would execute and perform the script actions on the file selected. I don't need help on the script, just getting it to execute when I click on it in the catalog.

I think I need to modify something in the script properties. Tried searching, but there is A LOT of hits on searches for catalog / scripts that are not quite related.

Post a screenshot of the properties of such a catalog entry which doesn't work, especially
of the part that is in the "Location" field (use the edit button on the right side to show the
full content)?

I figured it out when looking for the 'location' field.. The action on click needs to be 'go to location' and then the location should be '::load'.

Actually it can consists of a real script or if you use ::load I hope you gave it the script name to load as well :P
