XDG_MENU_PREFIX

[Dan Espen]

I have questions about XDG_MENU_PREFIX as it appears
in the spec.

This appears to be a dash terminated prefix applied to
the applications.menu.

My Fedora system has a lot more menus than just the
applications.menu.  It has:

/etc/xdg/menus/applications-gnome.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/documentation.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/gnomecc.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/kde4-applications.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/kde-information.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/preferences.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/server-settings.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/settings.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/start-here.menu
/etc/xdg/menus/system-settings.menu

As you can see, even the "applications-gnome" menu violates
the XDG spec.

Where is my:

kde4-preferences.menu file?

I just don't get the logic of having a standard for
just the "applications" category.

I'm in the midst of adding a new xdg menus tool to fvwm2 and
I definitely want to access menus than just applications.

Comments?
