Re: [Tuxpaint-devel] Comment from Ubuntu - Launchpad Bug Tracker

[Bill K. <nb...@so...>]

I'm not really an expert on .desktop files, but I think this is a neat idea.

I use KDE on Kubuntu 8.04, so I have Dolphin and Konqueror.
(I guess we'd want 'servicemenu' entries for those tools.)

Anyone out here know much about this?  And is there any similar way of
registering applications like this on Windows and Mac OS X?
