Description Matthias Clasen 2006-08-20 04:09:52 UTC 
_GenericName=Menu Editor 

would be nice, since we generally display the generic name in Fedora.

Also, the Comment field could be improved, "fd.o Compliant" is not really
something that is useful information for users. Something like

_Comment="Modify panel menus" 

would fit much better with the comments used in other .desktop files that
show up in the accessories menu

Fixed in CVS. Thanks!
