Thanks.
I got that far. I can add as many programs as I want. But what I don't
know how to add is something that contains many more programs. In other
words, I can put a launcher on my panel, add programs Firefox, xxxterm
and Arora to it. But what I don't know how to add is another item
called "Other browsers", that contains programs Chromium, Dillo, and
dwb.
