Hello, I installed BlueGriffon to see if I could help you and because it gives me an excuse to check it out. I'm looking maybe to replace SeaMonkey Composer for the same kind of WYSIWYG web page work. Fortunately for me (but unfortunately for you?), the install was flawless and there is already a proper BlueGriffon shortcut (desktop entry file) in the menu.
Just in case my install process was different - here's what I did; wget -q -O - http://archive.getdeb.net/getdeb-archive.key | sudo apt-key add - sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://archive.getdeb.net/ubuntu trusty-getdeb apps" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/getdeb.list' sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install bluegriffon The shortcut now in my menu is this: [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Name=BlueGriffon Exec=/usr/bin/bluegriffon %U Icon=bluegriffon Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=Application;Development; To use it, copy the text above and follow Israel's advice gksu leafpad /usr/share/applications/bluegriffon.desktop Paste the text into that bluegriffon.desktop file. This puts BlueGriffon in the Programming sub-menu - which is where I happen to want it. If you want BlueGriffon to appear in the Internet sub-menu instead, again do what Israel advised and change the Catagories= line to say Categories=Network; Or, by some chance - if you want BlueGriffon to appear in both the Programming and Internet sub-menus, make it say Categories=Application;Development;Network; Eric -- Thank You, God Bless You, Computers4Christians http://computers4christians.org/ On 08/02/2015 06:00 AM, lubuntu-users-requ...@lists.ubuntu.com wrote: > Send Lubuntu-users mailing list submissions to > lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > lubuntu-users-requ...@lists.ubuntu.com > > You can reach the person managing the list at > lubuntu-users-ow...@lists.ubuntu.com > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Lubuntu-users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
