Installing an App into K-Menu

Hi all,

what is the correct way in a program installation script to also register this 
new application into the K-Menu structure?

I tried to create a desktop entry file into ~/.kde/share/applnk
but the new entries (in fact I created a directory and in it two desktop 
files) appear only if I restart kicker. (using KDE 3.1.1 on RedHat)

Is that a correct behaviour ?
Shall I somehow add a dcop call (how?) to restart kicker after adding a new 
entry ?

I like to do everything what is needed inside my install shell-script.

Second question regarding this: 
I like to create also an entry which points to the Online-Help page of my new 
application.
If I create e desktop entry file with
Type=Link
this does not work.
Somewhere I read that I have to use Type=Application, but then I can not use 
the Users default setting for the Web-Browser he wants to use.

How can I do this?

Thanks.
