Hi!

I've seen in some other forums that people would like to have a starter-bar desklet with the possibility of adding a menu (like the KDE or Gnome menus).
If this feature could be added to the Yap desklet would be great!
Does anyone of you know whether it is easy to implement?

Well, the actual menu itself would be a problem as far as I am aware (unless you don't mind using the inbuilt menu system :s). However, a button in yab could easily be tied to a menu application. I could for instance, under XFCE4.2, make a button run 'xfdesktop -menu' and even have another run 'xfdesktop -windowlist'. I think, its probably best to have a third party menu program and call that from yab than trying to build one into a desklet.
