[ydl-gen] Right click - should it work on Enlightenment desktop?

[bayshore2004 at yahoo.com]

  David, the other user sent me a screenshot of his PS3 Enlightenment desktop with the right click context menu showing.

  Open up this photobucket pic and you can see that his PS3 E17 desktop has right click enabled.  Are there different compile versions out there that would account for this?
  How can we enable this right click in YDL 5.0 E17?
   
  thankyou,

Under Enlightenment E17 right click normally brings up the Favorites
menu. This can be disabled at the compile stage, and in YDL it is
disabled. The IBar can be used to hold you favourite applications
instead. IBar is the bar with application icons in it. On a fresh
install it has terminal, firefox, gaim, rhythmbox, various open office
programs, and nautilus.

There already is a menu item to boot the PS3 into Game OS, left click
on the Yellow Dog button, select Applications->Applications->System
Tools->Boot PS3 Game OS (PS3 Game OS). You can drag'n'drop that menu
item to the IBar.

In E17 "Create launcher" is called "Create an Application". It is
available from the Applications configuration dialog. A right click on
the IBar and select "Add Application", the "Create an Application"
button is on the bottom of that dialog.

That other user is probably talking about a different window manager.
