 * Let's get a .desktop file for all the relevent science packages. Many don't have .desktop files or icons. I believe that most of the packages should have something like {{{Categories=ConsoleOnly;Math;}}} or {{{Categories=Application;Science;}}} . Please refer to the freedesktop.org standards for [http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ .desktop files] and [http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/ menus].
