Locations Menu files (requires root to edit)

• /usr/shar/applications

• /usr/share/pixmaps
• /usr/share/icons/foo

Edit files in plain text editor like GEdit

• Name : the name it will display on the menu (may need to change Name[foo] to reflect your language)
• Language : speaks for itself
• Comment : the rollover text
• Exec : the command it will execute when clicked
• Icon : the path to the icon shown in the menu
• OnlyShowIn : useful when trying to find why an application may not be showing the menu
• Terminal : runs the command in a terminal
• Categories : (I think) this is the submenu groups where it'll appear on the menu

Changes sometimes take a little while to update, restarting X or rebooting will force it to re-read that folder and apply the changes.

• Right click to edit menu. Click on something like a separator, move it up, then down to it's original place. Save.
