   I had tried that, but even tho LM says it will create a menu item, it   
   doesn't. viz: https://auslink.info/linux/launcher.png   
      
   also, this method doesn't work either ..

   hence my comment "does no one know why there is no menu item?". perhaps   
   it may have something to do with the program I am trying 'launch'?
