That didn't keep them from coming around periodically to pick my brain. :-)
Sadly, I now often find myself complaining of the lack of documentation in the Unix
world. I DO understand that the team is small and the tasks large, but having the same
problem pop up after each upgrade, with the same group of incoherent 'just do this and
all will be well (until next time)' is extremely frustrating.
I did find a bit of additional information about the Menu system in the Administrator
Guide handbook, and I will be looking at the XDG documentation to see what I can glean
there.

Thanks! I'll give it a shot and if it works I'll join the chorus of those
who hope it gets added to the documentation.
Real men don't read docs :)
