        the desktop is easiest. drag the applications’ .desktop file from /usr/share/applications directly onto the desktop.

            Thank You very Much. That worked perfect. Now to figure out how to put it on the panel if possible.
            Thanks again

              Just a tip to make it easy.
              After you have found your hidden .icewm folder in home
              you can once click on toolbar and then once click on menu-applications
              This will open both files in geany, where they are now shown side by side, you can click on menu-applications or toolbar in the above

              You can now mark and copy and paste every line you want that begins with prog
              from menu-applications file to the toolbar file

              The application will be shown afterwards in the toolbar.
              You have to restart icewm or logout/in or reboot to see them.
