You're welcome.
But really, I'd like to see someone (/me runs...) to create something
on pair with KDE4 execution buffer, KDE3 Katapult or MacOS X
QuickSilver. Not in the sense of nice effects, but to be able to load
modules to process the input and get some sane feedback.
Examples:
gg <keyword> -> matches on google plugin, dispatch
1 + 2 -> matches on calc plugin, dispatch
non-app-name -> matches on music db (ie: amarok, xmms2,...), may
also match on bookmarks
For the brave willing to do something like that, I'm sure we can find
out some mentors. API would be something simple, with callbacks like
match(string) -> entries, where entries are a tuple with priority,
matched-plugin, visible string, callback to use on select.
