I have googled for UserMenus and gnustep and found that number of
people found that this feature works if they use the path
~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/UserMenus
So, unless there is a good reason to put that directory under
the ~/GNUstep/Defaults maybe it would be a good idea to just
fix the documentation and leave the path as it was.
That also gives the answer to the original question in the thread:
yes, we can expect that there are people who learned to use that
feature. :-)
Looking trough the NEWS file...
The feature first appeared in 0.53.0
And later, in version 0.60.0 it says:
-----BEGIN-----
User Menu
---------
The user menu is now a compile time option disabled by default.
Supply --enable-usermenu to configure to enable it.
-----END-----
and...
-----BEGIN-----
Application User Menu Path Changes
----------------------------------
Default configuration for user specific menus installed in
/usr/local/share/WindowMaker/UserMenus or $(datadir)/WindowMaker/UserMenus
and ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/UserMenus.
-----END-----
So actually regarding the path everything was fine in the code, we just
didn't find it in the documentation right away.
I would suggest an addition of a line under the initial announcement
with the note that path has changed to
~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/UserMenus in a later versions so that
people don't get confused.
I updated the patch.
Thanks for your comments.
