Hello Paul,

So that was you who joined recently to our team? :D I didn't accept the
request right away but Phill did. Welcome to our team, we are glad to have
more contributors :)

You closed the comment on your posts so I hope you don't mind commenting
here :)

1- http://zleap.net/lubuntu-menu-editing/

First of all, we need to understand this is an 'un-official' application
for Lubuntu and that is why it is still on an unofficial PPA (Personal
Package Archive). Our Boss, Julien who is the head of devs has sent an
email (not sure when) about these apps and he asked us to test these and if
everything is okay, I guess the PPA will be public with 13.10 or even with
the lunch of 13.04 but that is my personal guess, after all, it is up to
the boss :D

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lubuntu-dev/non-official-apps

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install menulibre

That is all what you need in order to install menulibre.

Personally, I never need a GUI application to edit the menu but I do know
for a fact that most of our users are looking for that option. And I'm not
sure if you heard about my new project [1] or not but such option will make
it easier for XP Users to jump in with confidence :D

You don't need to edit: /etc/apt/sources.list

The above command : sudo add-apt-repository
ppa:lubuntu-dev/non-official-apps
Will take care of that.

2- http://zleap.net/lubuntu-menu-editing-lxmed/

I definitely heard about 'lxmed' because it's older than menulibre.
However, I'm not sure which one is lighter? because I don't need that, I
haven't tested both. I just have menulibre on my raring installation so I
guess I need to install lxmed to compare between everything for these two
applications.

Have you tested both already? dependency wise and memory wise?


Thank you!
