Comment 9 for bug 13409

Thanks for the suggestions Andrew,

Hard coding icon paths is a no-no for themeing, but there are no icons
provided for "vim" or "gvim" in the default themes (neither 'gnome' or
'human' has any as far as I could tell). So when I set Icon=gvim you
get a generic icon. I don't know if you can provide alternative icons
in the .desktop file so it could default to "gvim" but fall back to the
hard coded icon. Maybe I'm doing something wrong or missing something
here...

as for the Exec line, my understanding was that the TryExec=gvim would be
used if the Exec failed...again I might be missing something. But it's a
2 second job to change it if that is the prefered way.
