gnome 3: gnome-shell-extension additional menu

after upgrading to gnome3 i missed my additional menu with shortcut’s to rdesktop and vnc. then i researched a little bit and found some usefull links, see below.

here you can see my first little menu, i minimized entries so that the code fit to the weblog.

  1. create an extension with “gnome-shell-extension-tool –create-
    extension”
  2. name: menu
  3. description: my first menu
  4. uuid: menu@localhost (you can put any name here, but remember
    the name)
  5. edit ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/menu\@localhost
    /extension.js
  6. you can find the source below

here you can see how the menu should look:

gnome-shell-extension_sub-menu

full source:

menu@localhost.tar
