Extract the T-Menu layout to an outline format.
Grep through my local SVN tree to extract app descriptions.
(Where is this information likely to be?)
I could use some help with this folks. :)
I want to create a list of all the apps in TDE, preferably based on the
layout of the T-Menu. Any ideas how to do with without excessive
hunt-and-peck manual labor?
My goal is to create an Applications section for the web site that will
include a screen grab and description of the app. We have nothing like. I
believe such a section will add professionalism to the web site and TDE's
image.
Thanks!

If I understand you correctly, I did something similar with Ark Linux.
I used the xml for the kmenu and editing out all the code save for
the .desktop entries. From there it was easy to create an apps list based on
the kmenu content.
Hope this helps.
