# Kapitel 6. The desktop

# 6.1. How do I add an application to the desktop?

This is a simple exercise: click on the desktop with the right mouse button. In the appearing menu, select New | Program. Enter the title of the program, and soon it appears on the desktop.

You might want to change the new icon's properties, so click on the program name with the right mouse button, and select Properties. In the dialog, you should at least change the program to execute, and the icon. That's it.
