Do you have emacs installed? Rare .desktop files have complex shell 
commands inside. emacsclient treats --display option in a quite specific 
way, so it needs --display="$DISPLAY". Moreover, there is no way to pass 
to emacs "server" arguments like URIs using something similar to argv. 
That is why it is necessary to escape arguments used in lisp expressions

    emacsclient --eval "(FUNCTION \"ARGUMENT\")"

Emacs developers are against helper scrips as dedicated files, so there 
are inline script in Exec filed of .desktop files.
