Yes, i did read this, but what about something a bit more practical and
concise ? I did already give it at least two quick reads, but am no
nearer to be able to write a menu item.
What is the name of the files ? foo.desktop i imagine.
Where should they go ?
What do i put inside it ? A sample foo.desktop file you can modify
easily would be welcome.
And also, hints of any problems that were already encountered with the
debian implmentation of the files.
