Hi Arshad,

I'd like to kindly inform you that this doesn't make sense.  The
application the Apps...Dictionary points to is a binary program on
your hard drive.  The link you provided is a web page, no?

You get to the web page using a web browser, so you could add another
web browser (like Epiphany) and set it's home page to the site you
want.  Then use System...Prefs...Main Menu to try and put the
application where you want it.

HTH,
