Hi, I hope I am on the right list. My question is not about the xdg menu standard, but about how to use it in order to get automatic additional categories support.
I am the main fvwm-crystal developer, and I have always been very irritated about the support of the additional free desktop categories. Il am a big fan of audio and music, and these programs all end into the sound & audio category, which is a mess, that even on the Debian menu system. Of course, this is not better with distributions like gentoo which only provide what upstream provide. It is why I updated fvwm-crystal application menu with script that only rely on the content of the desktop files provided by the applications. But I still use some other desktops from time to time. I googled a lot. As example, the guy here: http://www.remastersys.com/forums/index.php?topic=1686.0;wap2 use the Include tag in the submenus, which is not practical, because every single software have to be added by hand, when the desktop files will provide the wanted categories when needed. Is it a way to automate this in a xdg-menu menu file. As examples, the additional categories for Audio are HamRadio; Midi; Mixer; Sequencer, Tuner; AudioVideoEditing; Player; Recorder Is it possible to combine all that to get the an Audio menu with automatic support for these additional categories, and how?
