Show table of contents in Mendeley

If you want to view the table of contents of pdfs in Mendeley, you can start the application with the following option:
mendeleydesktop --pdf-toc
To make a shortcut in your launcher in Ubuntu 11.10, you can open the Main Menu application and add a new item with the command to start Mendeley. Note that if Main Menu does not respond after clicking the buttons, it is possible that the gnome-desktop-item-edit binary is missing. You can confirm this by running alacarte from the terminal and see if there are any errors. To install gnome-desktop-item-edit, you can run the following command:
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gnome-panel

You can find the icon for Mendeley in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/. Choose the appropriate resolution you want for the icon. I used 48x48.
