well, i'm not that selfish! ;-) - i think lots of more people likes
not having icons on the desktop - and for me it were a last resort for
hiding the 'My Documents' icon when it's still pointing at '~/'
instead of '~/Documents/' - just because of this, i replaced pcmanfm
with nautilus (and i needed to rename /usr/bin/pcmanfm to
/usr/bin/_pcmanfm for avoiding it in the processes), and i hope
replace back when this can get fixed - i hope i could help on the
source code, but since i'm still not good in C language, i don't know
where in the code is this, and how to submit the code patch.

And about icons on the desktop, i'm curious on seeing this feature
implemented - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPM7MLz7JeA - as
everywhere i suggested it, i only saw it implemented on ReactOS...

i'm seeing it now, i didn't know this configuration file - does is it
exclusive to PCManFM, or shared with? There is a '
XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="$HOME/Documents" ' anyway, and i think '
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/Desktop" ' should point to '~/Downloads/'
instead...

thanks about sharing all this information! =)
