    I installed Httrack.
    It works fom commandline, but....
    It's not in the menu.....nowhere
    Peppermintos-Devuan- latest - installed yesterday

    All other seem to be OK

    You can create one for it.....
    Do this a root or sudo go to
    /usr/share/applications/

    Create a new file httrack.desktop
    Edit that file to look something like this

    [Desktop Entry]
    Name=Kumo
    GenericName=Kumo
    Comment=Simple SSB Launcher
    Categories=Network;
    Type=Application
    Exec=kumo
    Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/kumo.png
    Terminal=false
    NoDisplay=false
    

    That is an example for kumo......you replace kumo with httrack
    but most important parts are.
    Categories=Network; ----- This will place the icon in your whisker menu
    This link will help explain that: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apa.html
    Exec=kumo ------ this is what executes the application.....so use the same command you use in terminal.

    Hope that helps

    Yes, I will do that tomorrow.
    Thanks a lot for the tip

    But synaptic is still not fixed with me being clever :-) :-)
