Hannibal,
GNOME's menu specification is defined on freedesktop.org :
Desktop entry spec :
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/desktop-entry-spec
Menu spec :
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/menu-spec
Mime type spec
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/shared-mime-info-spec
Adding a menu item without using the alacarte menu editor can be done by simply
adding a .desktop file to /usr/share/applications (for all users) or for a
specific user to ~/.local/share/applications.
cheers
Matt
