Hi All,
I've installed an application with .desktop in ~/.local/share/applications.
Now I want to launch it using modkey+p but it is not there (awesome already
restarted).
As far as I could understand awesome's menu_gen.generate() doesn't look
into that folder. There is such code in lib/menubar/menu_gen.lua.in:
menu_gen.all_menu_dirs = { '/usr/share/applications/',
'/usr/local/share/applications/' }
And then it simply iterates over all_menu_dirs variable. Is it possible to
make it also look in ~/.local/share/applications?
I'm not sure if there is a standard regarding where to put desktop entry
files; this is what gnome people use:

Thanks,
Ivan
