Gnome 2.10 menu editing tools? [SOLVED]
Hi all,
I realise that Gnome 2.10 doesn't have its own native menu editing tool, and that 2.12 should provide one, but is there a tool that accomplishes this now? Or is manual editing of files the only ONLY way right now?
Thanks

I just found out about Denu from the Gentoo forums (yeah, I know, flame me you bastards...) and at its page apparently it works with any distro now...

I won't flame you for looking on the Gentoo forums. Some guys on the Gentoo forums may flame you for using Arch Linux, but that's the nature of the Gentoo forums.

To add to this, the AL wiki states that you can enter "applications:///" inside Nautilus. But when I type this in I get:
"applications:///" is not a valid location.

Re: Gnome 2.10 menu editing tools? [SOLVED]
posted the PKGBUILD for menueditor here
You'll need: pygtk, pyxdg. The last one is available from staging repo, but is an older 0.8 version which has some issues with menueditor. You can also grab the updated pyxdg 0.9 PKGBUILD also available from the link above.

KENTOSI,
the wiki you've seen must be a bit outdated... That command you used doesn't work in Gnome 2.10. Worked in 2.8. Reason? Not sure but I think it has something to do with Gnome people trying to adhere to Freedesktop.org standards.
