Re: How to edit the Foot Menu?

[Todd Pytel <tppytel sophrosune org>]

Thanks, but that's not really what I was asking... you gave the
locations of the .desktop files.  What I don't understand is how the
menu knows to look there.  For example, the RH main menu certainly isn't
going to check /var/lib/gnome/Debian for desktop entries.  What do the
Debian developers do point the menu to that location?
