Yes, that's what Gentoo is largely about & living at the cutting edge. |

KDE tries to organise the items in a rational manner, |
| 17 |
but it also provides Kmenuedit to allow you to do whatever you want. |

After you've designed your menu as you like it best, |
| 19 |
you simply have to check that new apps get put where you prefer. |

BTW there's a cute little app Apwal (x11-misc), which you can customise |
| 22 |
to call up a temporary array of icons on your desktop representing apps. |
| 23 |
I have it assigned to L-click & use it for apps I commonly use, |
| 24 |
but don't have restarted by KDE when it starts up. |
| 25 |
Apwal deserves to be better known. |
