Hi Anders you said As the system administrator you can put it in the system menu. How would I go about doing that John Proctor.
Well, pretty much as Ben said. As root, you create a file called something like Forte.desktop, and give it permissions 644 (chmod 644 Forte.desktop) The file should contain something like this
[Desktop Entry] Comment= Exec=/opt/forte_jdk/forte4j/bin/runide.sh Icon=/opt/forte_jdk/forte4j/bin/icons/ide.ico Name=Forte Path= Terminal=0 TerminalOptions= Type=Application X-KDE-SubstituteUID=false X-KDE-Username=
If you installed to another directory, change the paths accordingly. Now, where you put this file depends a little on what sort of menus you're using. If your students are using SuSE defaults, you can put it in /etc/opt/kde3/share/applnk/SuSE
Or in one of the subdirectories there. Each subdirectory represents a submenu.
The next time your students log in they'll have the new item in their menus.
