General Information

Gmenu2x is simple program launcher, originally developed for the GP2X handheld. As the GP2X is a gaming platform with only a few special-purpose keys, the key bindings when used on the NanoNote are currently a little unusual. The documentation for the original Gmenu2X is available here.

Adding Menu files

For teminal applications, you can add a menu file that looks like this:

   title=joe
   icon=skin:icons/utilities-terminal.png
   exec=/usr/bin/joe
   wrapper=true

You have to put this files in the /usr/share/gmenu2x/sections/(name_of_section)/ folder.

Where (name_of_the_section) is the tab where you want the launcher to appear example:applications. These menu files have no extension in their names, so the above menu file example can be called joe
