Run an app on Phosh from the CLI
One of the applications on my phone has a field to run a CLI command. I'd like to invoke another application with that property, but I don't know where it lives.

I don't see likely candidates in my `PATH`, and I'm tearing my hair out trying to find where the application drawer is configured. (I've found circumstantial evidence that the drawer can be appended to or overridden with *.desktop* files, but I can't find the original ones.)

How can I run one of my Phosh apps from the CLI?
