There is one really easy way. Use personal menu application for maemo. It basically lets you create your own personal menu. All configuration (really simple) is graphical. You can specify your own command lines to run and it lets you select icons etc.

I use personal menu for giving me an easy shortcut to run one of my scripts that I use for running bluetooth PAN on diablo.

I would think that any application (example sillypoker ), you can just create the shortcut as 'sudo debian hilda sillypoker' in your personal menu.


In fact, is this true that applications will run faster by running from within plain vanila hildon vs running from within IceWM? (Just because of the over head of extra processes like taskbar, clock, monitor applets and various other desktop related processes).
