Here i am asking some basic questions which i haven't got answered:
1. After i compile a soft and it does not appear in the application
menu, is it possible for someone to put the soft at the list manually.
If yes, then how?
For gnome: Right click on the menu icon, select Edit Menu. You can
insert new item under desired menu from there. You need to know which
command is required for running your software.
2. Can i replace bash commands with windows commands? Like replace ls with
dir?
You can use alias for renaming commands. e.g.,
alias dir=ls
Put this line in ~/.bash_profile file. Then start a new terminal or
run this command:
source ~/.bash_profile
3. Can i erase Ubuntu completely and restore windows on a hard
drive?(Installed Ubuntu as a partition)
The question is not clear. However, just deleting the partition is
enough for removing Ubuntu. To get rid of GRUB, you need to fix mbr
from windows.
4. Is it possible to install fluxbox or lxde on top of an existing
Ubuntu?(GNOME)
You can install whatever on your default Ubuntu. They don't collide.
They are completely different environment, although you can mix them
together.
5. Can i enable other debian based distro's repo(e.g mint) in Ubuntu?
Possible but not recommended. You have to manually find what works and what not.
