Well, what I think a simple first step is for gnome-menus to just categorize the results of g_desktop_app_info_get_all() effectively. That would at least get gnome-shell and gnome-panel out of the business of reading all .desktop files *twice*. > And we should also fix the other gnome-menus issues; I'm very much aware > of them and would also love them to disappear). So if the above step was done, then whatever interface we choose ends up living inside gio/gdesktopappinfo.c, which we need to fix anyways since we support apps launching other apps. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
