Here is my feedback as it may also be helpful to others with the same problem.. There was nothing odd (no kde* files) in the "~/.local/share /applications" folder I searched with kwrite in the "~/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu" file for "kde" and substituted "tde" in all "desktop" hits, i.e., the files named in the r14 script output noted earlier. Some occurred more than once as I had copies in various submenus. Saved the file, rebooted, there was one notice of a check, rebooted, DONE! Everything seems to work fine now, including the apps where the "tde" substitution was carried out. My installation is over 5 years old and has been through a number of upgrades so it is not surprising that there is some cruft in the setup. However, it has always worked well. Long live TDE!
