Question Adding shortcuts / links to Main menu in Gnome Desktop - FC2

I opened Applications:/// and tried adding a few links of my own. Does not work, message disk is read only

Please help. I want to add a few of my own links to the main menu or sub menus

Regards
Srinivasan

You can manually edit files in /usr/share/applications/
Or add your own file there.
Syntax is very simple:
Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Name_of_application
Comment=Comment
Exec=Application_command
Icon=Icon_name
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Application;Network;....
