and as per my earlier post ...
you've seen this ?

Yes, already can write desktop entries confidently.
... and this ?

Well, it's about as clear as mud - it's only describing placing files in
locations that you MUST be root do do under legacy systems, but I know
for a fact that you can affect the user's menu without having to be
root... which I'd like to do. Also, where the heck is "datadir" and
"sysconfdir" or how do I find those? I have no environment variables
(not listed by "env" anyway) that describe these.
GetEnvironmentVariable('XDG_CONFIG_DIRS') returns a blank string...
It's not often something frustrates me like this one is but I'm just
having a hard time understanding what I'm reading and sync'ing it with
my expectations I guess.
