Gnome Menu Extended is a menu for the GNOME desktop with KDE and OpenOffice.org submenus for Gnome 2.10 or later.
If you install both Gnome and KDE then the Applications menu will become a mess with overpopulated submenus. Some distributions try to solve this by hiding many Gnome apps in KDE and most KDE apps in Gnome. I do not like that. I want to access KDE apps in Gnome and Gnome apps in KDE. So this is my attempt to both maintain desktop interoperability and unmess the menus.
Why should one install both Gnome and KDE at all? You might share your machine with somebody who prefers the other desktop, or you might be a desktop junkie like I am.
Disclaimer
Gnome Menu Extended is not compatible with the menus of heavily customized distributions such as SUSE, Mandriva, PCLinuxOS, or UHU-Linux.
