fixing missing launch icons

[Beeblebrox]

Unfortunately, it was too soon to tag the problem solved. I tried an entry
like so:
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Emma-SQL
GenericName=Emma-SQL
Comment=Emma-SQL Manager
TryExec=emma
Exec=emma
Icon=emma
Type=Application
Categories=Programming
Directory=Programming

1. This did not show up anywhere in any sub-menus.
2. When I change the desktop session I use from say Gnome to Fluxbox, the
"Applications" menu changes completely and not only has a very different
sub-menu (Directory) structure than Gnome but also many of the menu items
are missing, while some menu icons which were not in Gnome become visible. 
Emma-SQL did not show up in the Fluxbox menu either, btw.
3. <Categories> has influence on this as well, because to fix a
multiple-entry item I just removed the other categories and the icons
reverted to a single sub-menu.

Thanks and Regards.
