8.2.2 Preferred variables
-------------------------

The following aren't special for install-menus, but it's nice (read:
essential) to use the same variables for the same things.  So, I'll
suggest some here.  If you want to invent new ones, please do so and
mail them to me so that I can include them here.

icon:
     The location of the icon file for this menu entry.  If you don't
     have an icon file, just leave out the icon= in the menu entry.

icon32x32:
     The location of a 32x32 icon file for this menu entry.

icon16x16:
     The location of a 16x16 icon file for this menu entry.  This allows
     users to choose between 16x16 and 32x32 icon.

longtitle:
     For people that like descriptive titles (about one line) It is
     probably best to include this in your menu entries, while the
     window-managers don't (by default) put it in the menus.  That way,
     people who want descriptive titles can turn them on, but others
     don't need to use them.

description:
     An even longer description (about 5 lines).  For example, a
     description of the documentation in the dwww generated html pages.
