Actually there are several rpms that install an icon in the menu.  For
instance- Opera, FireStarter Firewall Tool, ABI Word,...  Its dependent
only on if the programmer included the information in the rpm, whether
its a gui application or not doesn't matter.  I was kinda suprised that
Cobind Software didn't put an icon in the menu for Yumi.  Although, I
always use the command line with yum, I was just curious.  Normally
though you will not find a menu entry for command line programs and
sometimes you will find an icon for gui applications but not always.
