[debian] auxlaunch enhancement to use .desktop files

2010-01-01 Thread Neil Jerram
Hi Al, list, Attached are patches to allow a line in the .auxlaunchrc file to reference an app.desktop file, so that auxlaunch can get the information that it needs from that file. I find this useful, but I'm curious what others may think, so please let me know. Al, if you'd like to incorporate

Ben, sorry for the delay in responding to your message. Thank you for testing Auxlaunch - it really helps. Also, I apologize for the DMS error. My code to parse the DMS files wasn't robust enough! I hope the latest version, at least, avoids the error but skips the entry. I integrated your code

Ben, thank you for your comments! I just finished adding a command line option (-dms) to add launch items from the Debian Menu System. (Note that it only uses DMS entries that specify needs=x11.) Also, I made changes based on your suggestions. I added a -right command line option to swap the

Hi, thx a lot for this nice app, I think I will leave my idesk conf for it. Is there a way to : - use right-hand entry for making a menu switcher - making defaults sizes when auxlaunch starts (fullscreen-like ?) - use aux botton for hide/unhide auxlaunch and how to get your top level icones

I created a wiki page with screenshot [1]. I also enhanced Auxlaunch. It now also acts as a rudimentary, finger-friendly task (window) switcher. This is an optional feature. Comments welcome, Aliasid [1] http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Auxlaunch On Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 10:19 AM, Davide Scaini
