How to run Gnome Launch Box?
Submitted by sgarrity on Sat, 2007-01-20 21:11.
I've got gnome launch box installed, and I can run it fine from the command line. However, I'm not sure how to get it setup in a way that it can be quickly invoked with a key command. Surely there's an easier way to call it up rather than running it from the command line each time.
Thanks.

The version in svn actually
The version in svn actually sets up its own keybinding, I just need to implement a UI for it (or use the global one I think GNOME 2.18 will have?). I have the key /apps/gnome-launch-box/bindings/activate set to "space" for example, then run launch box in my session with the -n option so it doesn't show the box on startup.
Doesn't Gnome have a GUI for
Doesn't Gnome have a GUI for this in 'Preferences'->'Keyboard Shortcuts'? I'm guessing it's not too difficult to add a shortcut key to this list, perhaps under the Desktop heading.
It would make Launch-Box feel nice and integrated.
You can't add stuff there
You can't add stuff there dynamically though (it will be possible in the upcoming GNOME 2.20 version), we are just waiting for that :)
