If you are talking about windows WITH QREXEC, then just add the
shortcuts
again.
You can add them to the menu using KMENUEDIT, or many other ways
Including copying the .desktop files to the new machine onto your
desktop, or else into another folder and adding them directly to the
menu system using kmenuedit or similar CLI interface.
I am referring to the dropdown "Q" menu that lists your various VMs
and
the software in them.
I was used to the KMENUEDIT in KDE. It was easy enough to make QREXEC
shortcuts.
The new R3.2 defaults to XFCE in a clean install. I didn't see a way
to
edit those menu items the same way. Sure I can add more shortcuts for
programs that are installed and generate .desktop files. The problem
I'm
having is with the software or executables that don't show up in the
shortcuts list. For example, portable apps; You don't install them you
just
run the .exe
See
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/qubes-users/rMMgeR-KLbU/SoR4fQwsBAAJ
for an example of creating a "Qubes-proper" shortcut to an arbitrary
file.
That example points to a .desktop file inside an AppVM, but the target
can
be anything that the AppVM knows how to execute.
Thanks! That's what I was looking for.
A bit more work than the KDE, but looks like it would achieve the same
result. I hope that one gets added to the Wiki.
