EXMENEN(1)						      General Commands Manual							EXMENEN(1)

NAME

       exmenen, exmendis - enable or disable extra menus for GNOME, KDE and other XDG menu-spec compliant desktops

SYNOPSIS

       exmenen (--system | --local) [ module ]

       exmendis (--system | --local) [ module ]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the exmenen and exmendis commands.

       exmenen	is  a  script  that enables the specified extra applications menu on either a system, or per-user basis.  It does this by creating
       symlinks within /etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged/ (system wide),  or  ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/menus/applications-merged/  (per-user).  If  the
       XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable is unset, its default is taken to be ${HOME}/.config .

       Likewise,  exmendis  disables  an extra applications menu by removing those symlinks.  It is not an error to enable a menu which is already
       enabled, or to disable one which is already disabled.

EXAMPLES

	      exmendis --system electronics
	      exmenen --system electronics

       Disables the system wide extra electronics menu, enables it for the current user.

FILES

       /usr/share/extra-xdg-menus
	      Directory with .menu files defining the available extra modules.

       /etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged
	      Directory with links to the files in extra-xdg-menus for system-wide enabled extra menus.

       ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/menus/applications-merged
	      Directory with links to the files in extra-xdg-menus for per-user enabled extra menus. If XDG_CONFIG_HOME is  unset,  the  directory
	      used will be ${HOME}/.config/menus/applications-merged
