bbbutton is a dock software to create one-touch application launch buttons for easy access.
BBButton is a dock application that provides the functionality of creating single application launch buttons with customized images and application launches. The dock application is designed for BlackBox users but is not limited to it.
To install or uninstall BBButton, extract the compressed file using the command "tar -zxvf bbbutton-0.1.tar.gz", change the directory to bbbutton-0.1, initialize the makefile using "make," and then install or uninstall the application using the "make install" or "make uninstall" command.
Once installed, users can load a launch button on the Slit by entering the command "bbbutton /here/is/my/applications/pixmap/xmms.xpm "xmms &"". Users can also automate the loading of various "button-applications" by adding the information in the .xinitrc file.
An example of a .xinitrc file with the information is provided. The sleep command is incorporated to ensure that the application is loaded successfully before the next application is invoked. Other commands such as "wmsmixer -w" and "bbkeys -i" are added to provide more functionality, and the "display -window root ~/.DesktopIcons/birth.jpg &" command is used to display a background image.
In conclusion, BBButton is an effective dock application that simplifies the launching of single applications with customized images and application launches.
