In my opinion, e should auto-populate the(/a?) menu with every application available.. They do show up in the menu editor, all sorted out into categories. It does not appear like it would be a huge pain to get such a menu set up. It just seems wrong - from a usability standpoint - to require the user to update menus when a new application is installed that just happens to not be in a menu file, but installed its desktop-file in a reasonable location.. -- Cheers, Morten ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
