OK. I've been using Kubuntu for almost a year now ... Started with Hoary, then upgraded (using apt-get) to Breezy and am now running Dapper, again via apt-get (Flight 6 but I'm constantly updating/upgrading so it stays current).

But through all of this, my 'start' menu has become quite messy and filled with a lot of programs I don't use. I know how to manually remove entries -- either just the menu item itself or the whole program using apt-get remove (or adept) but I'm hoping someone out there has come up with a more clever and quick way to do this.

Awhile back, I found a post related to this subject over on the Ubuntu forums:

Post #4 by jamboarder describes a way to do it but it's kind of labor intensive and I'm lazy. :) Well, if that's the only way to do it, then so be it.

Any and all help or suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks!

Right-clicking on the KDE start menu and opening the menu editor for me is still the quickest and easiest way to do this
