I am attempting to duplicate much of what is on my desktop on my laptop. 
One of my activities is transcription of recordings of interviews. I 
used to use Express Scribe on Windows for that but a couple of months 
ago I found two Linux tools that successfully -- for me, anyway -- 
replace Express Scribe. They are the programs Transcribe and Footpedal. 
Both are installed from .deb files. They are now both installed on my 
laptop. The problem is that I don't remember how I got Footpedal onto 
the launcher panel. Transcribe installed itself in the Sound & Video sub 
menu of the Applications menu and it was a simple right-click to add it 
to the launcher panel. I don't find Footpedal in any of the sub menus of 
the Applications menu. I can start Footpedal from the command line, and 
it acts as expected. When installed it displays an icon of a foot over 
next to the date/time display.

I tried right-clicking on the launcher panel and clicking on "Add to 
panel...". But when I type in footpedal the list of available programs 
goes blank.

Any hints on where to look to solve this?

Thanks.
