X-Launch

Are you tired of the same old run dialog on your computer? Look no further than X-Launch, a powerful and stylish alternative. With its GTK-based skinning system, X-Launch can be personalized to fit your unique style. Plus, its bash-style autocompletion makes launching applications a breeze.

But X-Launch isn't just about looks. Its animations will let you know when a program is taking a while to launch. And with the ability to stay resident in memory and hide itself after launching an application, X-Launch is more powerful and faster than most other run dialogs.

One standout feature of X-Launch is its hotkey management system, independent of any window manager. No need to open the run dialog every time you want to launch an application. Plus, for avid keyboard users, its full command history and inline command history make launching applications even quicker and easier.

In addition to all these features, X-Launch also offers tab completion for executables and directories, as well as configurable behavior after launching an application. And with its smart app technology, X-Launch will figure out if you've typed a valid application.

X-Launch requires GTK+ version 1.2 and gnome libraries (specifically gnomeui). And with the release of the latest version, X-Launch has fixed its options dialog and added a scroll bar.

In short, X-Launch is an excellent choice for anyone looking to personalize their run dialog while also increasing efficiency and ease of use.
