Hi rp3,
you may get rid of these symbols by following this "clean" way (it follows some conventions, so it will be resistant to package updates):

1st create a directory within a hidden folder in your home directory:
Code:
cd ~/.local/share
mkdir applications

2nd copy the mc desktop files to your local:
Code:
cd /usr/share/applications
sudo cp mc*.desktop ~/.local/share/applications

3rd edit the mc.desktop and and mcedit.desktop and add this line at the end:
Code:
NoDisplay=true

Save!
The symbols are gone from your launcher now...
Midnight commander is a great tool within ssh sessions as well Tongue

Regards,
scholbert
