Add Menu on Debian Linux

This small tutorial is inspired by a tip from Navarre of Anjov. This tutorial helps you to make Coccinella accessible from the WindowMaker menus.

  1. Create a directory called '.menu' in your home directory.
  2. Create a text file (the name do not matter) containing something like:
    ?package(local.testmenu):\
      needs="X11"\
      section="/Apps/Graphics/Test Thing"\
      title="Here we go"\
      command="nedit"
  3. Save that file in '~/.menu'.
  4. Rebuild the system menu:
    update-menus
