I have mathematica installed on my system and was thinking it'd be nice to make this available via the menus. I know Debian has a nice method of doing things like this but I can't seem to make it work. I THOUGHT it was as easy as adding a menu entry in /etc/menu, so I installed a file called /etc/menu/mathematica with the contents:
?package(mathematica):\ needs=x11\ section=Apps/Math\ title="Mathematica"\ command=/usr/local/bin/mathematica and ran update-menus. Unfortunately I must be missing something because the entry didn't show up in my WindowMaker menu. Apps/Math only contains: Xcalc bc dc I tried various things, including a reboot, and a "update-menus -v", but I didn't see anything that was of use to me. Can someone shed some light on what I'm missing here? Thanks, Gary
