  That's a nice idea. Will implement that in the next version.

  Coming soon. Will be monitoring the /usr/share/applications directory for
changes.

  Well, missed that. I changed the category name to Utilities. There is a
utilities.png in /usr/share/launcher. Change it to utility.png.

  Ok. That should get resolved once the scroller for the icons starts
working.

  That can be done. Currently, add entries in the app_cat table (using
sqlite3) for the required app (terminal) with all the categories you want to
see it in. eg name:terminal category:Home

  Hmmm, I'm looking at an easy way of finding a way to sort icons as per
user requirements. I'll apply the same to the categories too.

  Thanks for the suggestions guys. I'm also looking at increasing the size
of the missed calls and sms icons.
  Any other wishes?
