I released a new version to my garage page that will actually launch email, modest, mahjong, and other "problem" applications after you add them from the installed files. You will have to remove the existing entry and add it again after the update. Thanks simple-launcher and terrancegf!

I will update the first post here when I have some actual time.

thanks for working on this today! it works great now :)

I wouldn't mind having a main menu replacement. I love the ability to have the size icon that I want (or none for that matter). So my vote would be to keep considering the submenu.

BTW: Great work on this.

This is a great app. :)

Is there any way to remove icons from the origonal app menu? Otherwise all we are really doing is making more icons for the same app. So is this possible?

Thanks!

mrlanrat: That was one of my first thoughs with this program. If I could figure out how to do it without modifying the desktop files I would add it in as an option.

Very nice, thank you!
My menu is full of xmame emu'ed games now, no more long command strings that are unique for each game. :D

Is there a way I can create custom icons that Personal Menu can find and use?

That is problibly my favourite and most used app! thanks!
Nnow if only someone could come up with a custom hildon desktop that installs non-invasivly and could be edited on the device to your style and arrangment and could be turned on, off and, be edited using a application or thrue a plugin for the control panel or thrue a status bar app. but there is only one drawback, how can you get the windows to adapt to the costom desktop? and one more thing, could this be practicle if even possible?

So does anyone know how to do this?

My idea would to be add a GUI way of editing the file manually.

If not how do I do this Manually?

Personal Menu lets you do this yourself. Just make an entry with no "Command to execute".

You can make the "Name of the menu entry" be "---------------------" to give you a separator line.

But I like using this freedom to make section headings. Like this...
