Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : xdg-menu Version : 1.5 Upstream Author : Konstantin Korikov <lostclus at gmail dot com> * URL : http://xdg-menu.sf.net/ * License : GPLv2+ Programming Lang: Python Description : generates menus for window managers from .desktop files
It seems that Debian is slowly trying to switch from its old menu system to the freedesktop .desktop system. Of course the long term goal should be to have only one syntax for expressing menus and this appears to be .desktop. That of course implies dropping support for .menu files eventually. Unfortunately .desktop files are not yet integrated into contemporary window managers such as awesome, fluxbox, fvwm, etc. Adding this integration is the purpose of this package.
