tools like e17genmenu create .eap files that describe an application. the info for the .eap is sourced either from a .desktop - or a user can manually create their own. thus the most information we have is from the .desktop files. these are part of the freedesktop standard and both kde and gnome ship these files for starters. -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 裸好多 Tokyo, Japan (東京 日本) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
