Looks good, then you create a Math.directory and put in  
${X11BASE}/share/gnome/desktop-directories/ .. You can check in  
/usr/ports/x11/gnome-menus/files/KDE.directory for example.

Gee, since GNOME 2.10 doesn't has any menu editor and it looks like it  
might be more people that want to edit applications.menu or in one of  
~/(don't know where it is).. It means I will have to tweak plist in  
gnome-menus to respect any files in ${X11BASE}/etc/xdg/menus to avoid  
remove your modified applications.menu and etc.. I suggest you to backup  
them now and I will commit a bump version of gnome-menus to respect. After  
that, you can put it back and gnome-menus port will not mess with your  
again.

Cheers,
