Launchy-tools

Launchy panel and associated tools(Pyqt5)

From this repository you will find: Launchy Panel, an improved toggle script, clock program and a Media Launcher. These tools appeared all as parts of PostX 0.4.4.

It is adviced that you place this entry to .xbindkeysrc for quick launching.

---

#Launchy Toggle function

“bash /usr/share/launchy_toggle.sh”

F6

---

Place this entry(or similar) to your autostart file(.xinitrc etc). The entry will make sure that Launchy starts as hidden and that the toggle between hide and show works.

touch $HOME/.toggle_launchy &

Place all the programs to /usr/share pathway.

The toggle script executes and ends both Launchy Panel and the clock upon a keypress. Procps is now a needed dependency, which means that the full list should be as below. On some distributions, you might need to adapt the dependency list.

python3

python-pyqt5

python-minimal

procps

python-gi
