Hi everybody.
I'm wondering if it's possible to add something to the main menu.
When you right-click on an app in the menu, you can add that item to the panel or the desktop. Is it possible to add a 3rd option? I'd like to be able to send a copy of the launcher to a folder. It's for a folder/file driven "quick launch" menu system I designed.
Thanks in advance!

Hey fatso. We haven't seen you in a while.Is it possible to add a 3rd option? I'd like to be able to send a copy of the launcher to a folder.
I say it is far easier to move it from the desktop, than to try to add a 3rd option.

Hello back at ya mikeflan! I ain't been around here cuz I've been tied up with my new business...designing/making props.
I figured what I'm asking wouldn't be so easy, but I'm also not afraid of a challenge. Moving .desktop files from the desktop is how I do things now, was just hoping I could have a more efficient method. Thanks for the feedback anyway.

Well, it didn't take much digging to find a more workable solution.
Since launchers are stored in /usr/share/applications and ~/.local/share/applications, I can just add a file browser of sorts to my app and select stuff to add from there.
Marking as solved.
