Does anyone know how to add an entry to a program in the wine list of apps under emulators in the start menu? I have been looking for a way to do this and either am blind or just have'nt found it yet.

In Gnome or KDE? I believe KDE has a menu editor that will allow you to edit it to your liking. I use IceWM which makes editing the menu as easy as pie.

Yes, in Kde, right click on the kde start button and open the menu editor. In my case, I have Dreamweaver MX linked to Crossover Office. In my home directory, I have a shell script linked to the wine exe file and to the directory where the Dreamweaver.exe file resides. I made the script exacutable and added the exe script to the command line under the new item created for Dreamweaver in the menu editor. Let me know if you need more information. The shell script should work for wine as well.
