NAME

menufile - entry in the Debian menu system
 

SYNOPSIS

/etc/menu/*

/usr/lib/menu/*

/usr/share/menu/default/*  

DESCRIPTION

This man page may be out of date in some places. Look at /usr/share/doc/menu/html for more up-to-date info.

The menu files are usually named after the Debian package that contains the programs listed in them. In it, you can list several "menu entries", that specify a specific item in the menu "menu entries", that specify a specific item in the menu structure. Each menu entry specifies what package it depends on, if that package is not installed, the menu entry will be ignored by update-menus(1). (In a menu entry you can specify pseudo-packages that start with "local.", update-menus will always use those menu entries). If you wish to remove an item from the menu entirely, make an empty menu file with the same name as the file you want to override.  

Examples

 ?package(dosemu):needs=text section=Apps/Emulators title="Dosemu" command=dosemu
 ?package(dosemu):needs=x11  section=Apps/Emulators title="Dosemu" command=xdos

The system administrator wants to override this file to change how dosemu is run, so /etc/menu/dosemu is created:

 ?package(dosemu):needs=text section=Apps/Emulators title="Dosemu" command="dosemu -A"
 ?package(dosemu):needs=x11  section=Apps/Emulators title="Dosemu" command="xdos -A"

A user does not want Dosemu to appear on his menus at all, so he creates an empty file named ~/.menu/dosemu .  

FORMAT

?package(package-name):var1=value var2=varlue2 ...

needs=

What type of display will the program run on? This variable must be defined, and should be one of the following:

needs=text

any text display

needs=x11

X11 displays

needs=vc

At the Linux console (i.e.: svgalib programs)

needs=wm

A window manager.

needs=fvwmmodule

A fvwm version 1.x compatible module.

needs=fvwm2module

A fvwm version 2.x compatible module.

section

The section in which the menu entry should appear. See MENU LAYOUT for preferred section names.

icon

An icon for this menu entry. If no icon is available, just don't define this. (icon="none" is also possible, preferably just leave it out)

title

The title of the program that will appear on the menus. Keep it short. If two menu entries share the same title and section, the one that bests fits the available display will be used. So in the example above with two menu entries that both have the menu id "title", if X is available, the X11 one will be used, otherwise the text one will be used. Must be defined.

command

The command to be executed when this menu entry is selected.

hints

A comma-separated list of hints on how grouping menu entries, see manual.
