Hello,
After extensive googling and list-postings & with no
responses, I am posting to this list.
I am attempting to modify the MENU in FC-2 (Gnome
2.6).
For learning purpose I have modified an existing entry
to create a new MENU item. Below is what I have done..
1)Created file /usr/share/applications/test.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Test
Comment=Test has done this
Exec=sound-juicer
Icon=sound-juicer.png
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Application;
X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Bugzilla=GNOME
X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Product=sound-juicer
X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Component=general
2)Created
/usr/share/desktop-directories/test.directory
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Test
Comment=Test has done this
Icon=redhat-games.png
Type=Directory
Encoding=UTF-8
3)Run the following command as "root".
desktop-file-install --vendor=Foo_Me_Foo
--add-category=X-Red-Hat-Base
/usr/share/desktop-directories/test.directory
Menu Item "test" is being added & shows in the menu.
But "test" is being added under "Other" category.
I believe there should have been a new category "Test"
in the main menu, which when clicked would run the
application "sound-juicer".
Request someone to point where I am going wrong.
Can someone also guide me to how to add a separator
between menu items.
Thanking everyone in advance.
Best regards,
Sans
