LXDE Forums

I've read several threads on this forum about how to edit the LXDE Main Menu. I need to add new sub-menus, so just adding .desktop entries to ~/.local/share/applications isn't sufficient. And I'd prefer something easier than hacking ~/.config/menus/lxde-applications.menu with a text editor. Several posts, and the wiki, have suggested that alacarte can be used as a menu editor. But when I run it, it edits the file ~/.config/menus/gnome-applications.menu, instead of lxde-applications.menu. I haven't found any documentation for alacarte. How do I make it edit lxde-applications.menu?

(I'm running Debian 6.0 "Squeeze" with LXDE 0.5.0-4, and alacarte version 0.13.2-1.)
