Add PureBasic IDE to Start Menu Development from LXpanel.

To do this, create desktop files and save them in the folder /usr/share/applications/.

Start Geany via terminal with sudo
sudo geany

File: /usr/share/applications/purebasic.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Icon=/home/pi/Apps/purebasic/logo.png
Name=PureBasic v6.00
Comment=Developer Utility
Exec=/home/pi/Apps/purebasic/compilers/purebasic
Path=/home/pi/Apps/purebasic/compilers
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false
Categories=Development;IDE
Sometimes you need admin rights for certain hardware.

File: /usr/share/applications/purebasic-sudo.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Icon=/home/pi/Apps/purebasic/logo.png
Name=PureBasic v6.00 (sudo)
Comment=Developer Utility
Exec=sudo /home/pi/Apps/purebasic/compilers/purebasic
Path=/home/pi/Apps/purebasic/compilers
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false
Categories=Development;IDE
Then restart the LXpanel
sudo lxpanelctl restart

If you wish, you can use the 'Main Menu Editor' under settings to adjust the order of the entries.

So much ideas and possibilities when going to that level also.
Probably can write even own router, if mad enough to do that this way^^
At least I have huge list of such ideas (and similar).
