Not sure. I've never thought to wonder what it is actually called! The drop down menu which holds all the apps along with "most used Applications", "All Applications", "Actions" sections in it. > Sorry I don't know off any 'automatic' way - only the usual one - right > click, controll bar menu, add programm .... > > it really sounds like something ate your configs.

I was certain all the KDE apps had vanished when I first started posting various places on friday. Yesterday I was scratching my head thinking I'd lost my memory when the unused kde apps were back. Today, I return from work (having accessed via ssh again) and not only are they all back but so are the file associations. The most bizarre is rxvt - it has regained its arguments in kmenuedit. At least the kde apps were either there or not whereas rxvt has been "there a bit". Anyway, can you confirm it is kicker I'm describing or not please? While it's working I'd like to understand what the settings should be lest it happen again. TIA Guy -- [email protected] mailing list
