From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For KDE right click menus, you need to use service menus: https://develop.kde.org/docs/apps/dolphin/service-menus/

These are used by Plasma and most KDE apps that deal with files.

Krusader has a more powerful system for this called UserActions, but they're exclusive to Krusader and afaik Krusader is also compatible with service menus, so these are much less portable: https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/krusader/krusader/useractions.html
