Have you updated the startmenu? In the startmenu go to `Quit' and
there should be an entry called `Update Startmenu' after that you
should see all your entries. It took me some time to find that out ;-) 
I always restarted AfterStep.

BTW: I got problems with Wharf animate. In the standard configuration
that comes with AS it worked. When I use my own wharf file it stops
working. What else do I have to change to make that work again. I
searched for differences in the both files but canīt find any that
seems to be responsible for that.
And one more thing, what is ASSound doing, I find that module but it
isnīt named in any config file.
TIA

Tomas
