CentOS - Mar 2005 - editing gnome menu

Is there any easy way to edit the gnome menu under CentOS 4?

The same versions of gnome under different distros allow easy (to  
different degrees) of menu editing.

Ryan,

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by ``editing'', but if you mean
``adding'' and ``removing'' entries, I found ``Editing GNOME2
Menus in Red Hat Linux 8.0 and 9'', at

   <http://www.bluethingy.com/linux/rh8menu.html> 

to be pretty helpful in understanding how this stuff works.  It
seems like the information in that article applies to CentOS 3
(and, presumably, also to CentOS 4).  (Yes, I happened to be
tinkering with the menu stuff when I saw your message.)

Yes, I am looing to remove, or add entries. Your suggestion does not  
seem to work in CentOS 4, or FC 2 or 3.

In some distros (gentoo/vidalinux), all that is required is to open  
nautilus, go to applications:/// and make changes to folders. Others  
require a GUI tool (mandrake does this - yes mandrake can use gnome :-)

I'm out of ideas- its very frustrating to have icons everywhere since I  
can not make changes to the application menu.

Any help is appreciated!
