Getting Paint to appear in Accessories Menu

[krakket]

Hopefully this is a simple question, does anybody know how to get Paint to show up under the accesories menu in Wine? I tried pasting it in the same area as notepad (c:\windows) but this didn't do the trick. I'd like to be able to access it from the menu bar instead of having to go into a folder and click on the .exe every time.

If so could the same method be used to make Wine Wordpad show up in the accessories directory? I know I have it installed because I can open .rtf files with it but it isn;t under the wine menu in applications.

You didn't mention what desktop environment you are using (gnome 2.0 or unity), but the method is pretty similar: create a new menu launcher entry using the command line syntax "wine <windows path>".

So for example in gnome.

1. Right click 'Applications' menu - select 'Edit Menus'
2. Select 'Accessories' on the left pane - click 'New Item' button on the upper right
3. Name: 'Paint'
4. Command: 'wine c:\windows\system32\mspaint.exe'
5. *Comment and Icon optional
6. Click OK and enjoy.
