    This link does not address what I'm trying to do.

I create a bash script that runs /some/dir/XYZ.sh . I used to be ableto add an arbitrary icon to
my  panel that invokes it .I can in factopen the file manager and drag /some/dir/XYZ.sh into the
panel but Icannot modify the icon representing it.

On all earlier versions of Fedora/kde I was able to add a 'non kde app' and give it any icon I
wanted . I suspect I still can but the mechanism obviously is different on Fedora 9/KDE 4 .Any
quick pointers ?    
    

can't say it's pretty-


K/Applications/Settings/Menu Editor
create a menu item for /some/dir/XYZ.sh ( with yer choice of icons )
right click on new menu item, add to panel.
you should now be able to change the icon...
