Oh, I missed part of your question. What I say below still applies, with the addition that /etc/menu-methods/wmaker should be execuatable inside the .deb file. So, when wmaker is installed and configured, then /etc/menu-methods/wmaker exists and is executable. Now when the menu package is installed, it will use the menu-methods file. > /etc/menu-methods/wmaker is a configuration file.
