Edit right mouse click menu

Hello,

I have Centos 5.8 installed in a Virtual box. I want to edit the menu which appears when the right button of the mouse is clicked on the desktop.

I found this procedure for gnome "window manager":

Place any script, link or binary (must be executable) in the folder

/homedir/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts

example:

ln -s /usr/bin/konsole /home/user/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts

And a new menu option "scripts" appear on right mouse click, and there you find your konsole link

But for KDE could not find anything in the Internet.

If some body can help, it will be great!

NAME

       tk_popup - Post a popup menu

SYNOPSIS

       tk_popup menu x y ?entry?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This procedure posts a menu at a given position on the screen and configures Tk so that the menu and its cascaded children can be traversed
       with the mouse or the keyboard.	Menu is the name of a menu widget and x and y are the root coordinates at which to display the	menu.	If
       entry  is omitted or an empty string, the menu's upper left corner is positioned at the given point.  Otherwise entry gives the index of an
       entry in menu and the menu will be positioned so that the entry is positioned over the given point.

EXAMPLE

       How to attach a simple popup menu to a widget.
	      # Create a menu
	      set m [menu .popupMenu]
	      $m add command -label "Example 1" -command bell
	      $m add command -label "Example 2" -command bell

	      # Create something to attach it to
	      pack [label .l -text "Click me!"]

	      # Arrange for the menu to pop up when the label is clicked
	      bind .l <1> {tk_popup .popupMenu %X %Y}
