Adding an app to the menu has not changed in years from what I've seen.

Hello, i have recently downloaded the Tor Browser Bundle for Ubuntu 11.10. I have extracted it with no problems and it runs perfectly, my only question is. Can you make it so that the Tor Browser appears and can be launched from the Application menu and therefore added to the favorites Unity Bar? Thank you all in advance!
