Customizing gnome right-click


Hello, I wish to edit my gnome right-click. I have gnome 2.12 on ubuntu breezy.

I would like to be able to launch a terminal using the right click like we could in earlier gnome. What is the way to do it? I couldn't find any documentation about this, but, I may be looking at the wrong places, so kindly share with me and tricks, links, guides, howtos, etc.

Cheers!

Thanks for the link jong357, but this is not what I am looking for. I am looking for a way to customize the right-click.

When I say customize, I mean adding entries to the right-click.

Cheers!

after reading wat u meant by customize, i have to take back my words. when i said that it was possible in the earlier version of gnome, i was referring the fact that right click cud launch any application of choice. there was no feature for adding entries into the right click menu.

i hope u come up with a sol. and post it here.
