that's right :)

well, IMHO it would be better to have both options

great!

Now onto the other mail i sent to Andreas :)

Is there any plan to add Gnome/KDE menu systems support?

Dont't know, as i see there could be 2 possible options:

- Use separated files for each menu (one for Debian's menu, one for Gnome
and another for KDE), each one on it's own format (maybe on dirs 'menu',
'menu-gnome' and 'menu-kde' ...)

- Use a "standard" format and translate each entry to every "particular"
format (so only one menu file should be written and all three could be
automatically generated by cdd-dev)

What do you think?

Read you
