I have been looking around and found that each desktop installs its own menu file in there, but there's no "generic/ballback" applications.menu file that WMs like fvwm can use. So, can you give me an overview on how *your* distro of choice handles this? Is there a generic "xdg-menu" package or is the file generated using some script of those available on the net?
Even if you parse all the file in /etc/xdg/menus/ that doesn't solve the problem in Gentoo from the root, because you need kde, lxde, gnome or whatever else installed to get an xdg menu file. So, as I see it, there are two posibilities if we want xdg menu support in fvwm: either ship an fvwm-applications.menu file or fix it in the Gentoo side by adding the file in a new package, and making fvwm depend on it. So, what do you think? -- Jesús Guerrero Botella
