How to add icons to menus in Ubuntu 13.10
================================================================================
By default, using Ubuntu 13.10, the user is met by an optimized set of default applications, behaviors and functionalities, defaults empowering the user in digesting a powerful solid computer experience.

Ubuntu expresses its features as tweakable, as a consequence, users are able to modify and adjust the defaults with the help of intuitive user-friendly tools, such as Ubuntu Tweak.

By default, Ubuntu disables the icons from inside menus, meaning, right-clicking on the desktop, opens the right-click menu, menu containing only text entries and no icons.

Yet, adding icons to menus in Ubuntu 13.10 is as simple as:

- install Ubuntu Tweak

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa
    
    sudo apt-get update

    sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak

- launch Ubuntu Tweak and navigate to `Tweaks-->Miscellaneous`
- check `Menus have icons` 

The **result**: right-clicking now on the desktop, renders icons inside the menu, icon-enablement feature adopted by other right-click menus, too (like for example, the menus from inside Nautilus, Firefox, Gedit, etc).

While minor, the newly-added icons imprint more clarity and beauty into the frequently-used right-click menus, increasing their level of good looks, especially when the menus are icon-enabled under icon themes featuring monochrome icons.
