Adding and Deleting a Menu Item
In the ''Name'' field, enter the name to be displayed in the menu. Next enter the path and name of the command to be launched when the menu item is selected into the ''Command'' field. If you are unsure of the full path to the tool, use the ''Browse'' option to navigate the file system to find the applicaiton binaryapplication executable. For example, we might want to add a menu option to launch the ''gedit'' editing tool. To do so we would enter ''GEdit'' into the ''Name'' field and ''gedit'' into the ''Command'' field. The ''Comment'' fields field provides a place to enter optional descriptive text which will be displayed if the mouse pointer hovers over the menu option.
A menu item may be hidden or deleted entirely. Hide a menu item, simply turn by turning off the toggle next to the item in the menu configuration dialog. Delete an item by right clicking it in the menu configuration dialog and selecting ''Delete'' from the popup menu.
