Well, there's Debian packages for those...
Anyway, look at /usr/doc/menu and /etc/menu/README. Just put something
like this in /etc/menu and run "update-menus".
?package(local.grass):\
needs=text\
section="Apps/Local/GRASS"\
title="GRASS 5.0b8"\
command="/usr/local/bin/grass"\
icon="/usr/local/share/pixmaps/grass_sm.png"
You'll have to modify to your needs:
Probably want "needs=x11" for any GUI app.
It's good to preface it with 'local.'<packagename> so
update-menus understands the package isn't part of the Debian
system and shouldn't "worry" about it.
