In most cases, it should | solve it nicely. In some other cases, the rename kde- --> tde- would | probably fail and would require manual editing of the menu file. Also interesting -- I would not be surprised if my configuration contains items from whenever it was that KDE moved to the current way of doing menus. KDE 1.x iirc was purely manual, where you'd add the items yourself. I don't remember when the little applet that populated the menu came out, or when it became automagic on install. But I've been passing menu to menu to menu for close to decades now. It would be cool -- because the devs have nothing else to do <g> -- if there were a little script or utility that would check the menu against the real world, running checks to see if the executables exist and maybe changing such entries as are a little wonky, as when the kde- tde- conflict occurs, with allowance made when both exist. And maybe putting an asterisk or something next to menu entries that don't actually lead to anything that exists. In the best of all possible worlds imagined by me, menu editing would include a konqueror-like icon view that allowed much simpler movement of applications from one submenu to another, and so on. I'm sure there are excellent reasons for it to have evolved in the direction it did. But ideas that won't be implemented cost nothing! -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_heights/ ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
