Want to ignore .desktops and have custom menu.

[deggy]

Hi,

I want to have lxlauncher show a custom application set, rather then the standard /usr/share/applications contents.

Is there a way that I can make lxlauncher ignore the standard freedesktop structures and use a custom folder to look for its .desktop entries?

Thanks

Dan

Put your own .menu file in ~/.config/menus, or if you want it system wide, overwrite the menu file in /etc/xdg/menus with whatever you want. You don't have to call <DefaultAppDirs> if you don't want to.

and good luck to you.

That's a read and a half!! Thanks for the instant gratification and saving me trawling through it!!!

Still, at least freedesktop.org has documentation I suppose.
