The Launcher
Details
| Last Update: | 2008-01-27 05:01:24 |
| Version: | 2.3.1 |
| License/Program Type: | GPL (GNU General Public License) |

| Price: | $0.00 |
The Launcher project is a minimalistic application
launcher.
The Launcher is an application launcher focused on touchscreen
and keyboard usage. It tries do display as many relevant
applications on the screen as possible.
The Launcher is written in Python. The only frontend supplied
uses GTK+. Installing pygtk should be sufficient on most
distributions for The Launcher to run.
Usage
The Launcher has three views, that can be switched by selector
in top left corner:
· Recently used applications view shows the applications
launched recently. Most used applications are shown first.
· All applications view shows all the applications you
have, sorted alphabetically.
· Recently installed applications view shows latest
applications you have installed in the order of their
installation.
Hotkeys
The Launcher is fully usable without a mouse, thanks to a
number of hotkeys:
· Alt-[1..3] switch between the views
· Any alphanumeric key starts search in 'Recently used
applications' and 'All applications' modes
· Enter finishes search
· Alt-C clears the search field
· Alt-F changes the filter in 'Recently installed
application' view
· Escape closes The Launcher
Configuration
The Launcher should be completely usable when unconfigured.
However, some settings can be tweaked from configuration file. The
file, automatically created in '~/.thelauncher/gtk-ui' has the
following options:
· Fullscreen: Setting to '1' will make The Launcher
run in fullscreen mode.
IconSize: Size of application icons. Default is '-1', which
uses default GTK+ icon size.
· RecentlyInstalled: Maximum number of recently
installed applications to show.
· Columns: The number of columns to show. The value of
'-1' leaves this decision to GTK+.
You can install custom applications shortcuts in
'~/.thelauncher/local'. Any application in this folder will
override system-wide application with the same name.
Requirements:
· GTK+ version 2.10.x
· Pygtk
What's New in This Release:
· GNOME panel applet installation fixes.
· SUSE Linux support.
