[Wlug] gnome desktop menus?

[Bill Mills-Curran]

I've installed RedHat 8.0 on my system, and I've decided to finally
wean myself from fvwm2 and use the default setup.  I've been poking
around trying to figure out how to add entries to the panel menus.
There doesn't seem to be a gui interface to do it.  (There is a gui to
add stuff to the desktop and to the panel, but not the menus.)  I
suspect that the secret handshake is contained in /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/
directories, but I haven't found the secret decoder ring to help
figure out the right way to do this.

My main motivation is to add some favorite applications to the menus
for my family.  They are not about to use the command line.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

TIA,
Bill
