Death to dotfile clutter!
Unix doesn't have Windows Registry, it has dot files.
This is all implemented in common library code. If the same code runs on a
different *nix system, built against the same libraries, then it will
implement the same conventions for its dotfiles.
Bunch of big "if"s there.
These are very versatile things. They not only define clickable icons on
the desktop, but also menu entries. And also icons in the favourites
toolbar. And also custom entries in the “create new document” menu in file
managers.
Somehow I find myself not needing any of those things.
