Gnome3 is used still in wheezy but it uses the old gnome-panel and gnome menus while gnome-shell is the new GUI of Gnome3 (available on Sid). Both (gnome-apenl and gnome-shell) provide different paradigms to manage the desktop. > This is the NEW GNOME3 desktop, with the Full Application Menu covering > almost the whole screen.

Only sid has now gnome-shell so if you are in sid yes, you are talking about gnome-shell. If you are in wheezy, you have the old GNOME menu.

Look at "/usr/share/applications" and edit the corresponding "kdiff3.desktop" file to fit your needs. I mean, it should be something like: [Desktop Entry] Name=Kdiff3 Icon=preferences-system Exec=kdiff Terminal=false Type=Application StartupNotify=true Categories=GNOME;GTK;Settings; <<-- watch this! OnlyShowIn=GNOME; Notice the "Categories" line, here is where you can change it from the current "Others" location to whatever place you want it to appears.
