how do i create short cuts 1

[farley99]

Hi,

I installed gaim but to run it I open up a shell window and type /usr/bin/gaim

And if i close that window it logs me off gaim. Is there a way to put it in the start menu? Or have a desktop icon to gaim?

How do i do that?

if you right click the kde menu, one of the options should be menu editor. This program allows you add menus and menu items for programs. I think you can also right click the desktop and create a shortcut using the menu that appears, but I can't remember the specifics. All in all it should be extremely similar to windows if you're familiar with how to do it there.
