For my own self I prefer to have no entry under the Start Menu and an
icon on the desktop for some programs, with an entry on the Start Menu
and none on the desktop for others. It's all dependent on the
frequency with which I access the program. I really dislike
having an entry in both places. The SWORD project is one program
that I access frequently enough to want it on Desktop AND Quick Start
and, as a result, I wouldn't want it to go onto my Start Menu.
That said, most people probably won't want it that way and I can always
edit my Start Menu if I get fed up with it. But it's just that I
like it if there is an option tucked away somewhere to opt out of the
Start Menu group.<br>
