OK once again the ebuild is attached, it now creates a desktop file in /usr/share/applications/ and pops the .xpm icon file into /usr/share/pixmaps/. This is where gentoo likes these things to be.
Those of you who have expressed an interest in this game please try it
out. If it works OK I will check out any last tweaks i need and then
submit it to bugs.gentoo.org
Cheers, Nick.
