I'm not saying I remember how to do it, I just remember that it was

Does anyone know how I can add another group under 'Applications' on the
top panel of the GNOME desktop?

I can easily add an item to the Applications menu by creating a .desktop
file in the /usr/share/applications directory. But what I want to do is
create a new 'Astronomy' group containing links to the most popular
installed Astro software on one system, then distribute the relevant
config files to all my other machines.

Documentation seems scarce....

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Mark


I found this link useful too (especially the example about 2/3 of the
way down):-
