Yes, you're referring the creating an application launcher, I take it? However, the extension to this is the need to create one for each of the installed applications that do not get added to the (already in place) existing menus. I guess I'm asking about keeping the application launchers within the existing menu system. > > For the gDeskcal Issues I would have to install it to see if it acts the > same, but you should be able to create a menu item for it, by right > clicking the "Application" menu and then going to where you want it.

I have seen this procedure mentioned in the FAQ (http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html#q12), however, "Right-clicking" Applications brings up: Help; Edit Menus; Remove from Panel and Lock to Panel. Clicking on Edit Menus brings up a dialogue box that displays the current list of available applications, but no facility to *Add* a new menu item, from what I'm seeing. Again, is this expected, or is there some bits missing from my Gnome-2.14 installation(s) (just checked on three other machines, with the same results) here? Thanks again.
