Simple and minimal GTK+Cairo application launcher written in Python.

For example, you want to open a terminal, so you...

Super-space, term, Enter & voilà

Menuless, mouseless, iconless.

• launches programs
• config files to customize aliases and colors ;D
• before you ask yes, it is inspired on long defunct Enso Launcher
• before you complain yes, it is way simpler than Enso Launcher

• Linux (I think);
• Python (I'm sure);
• Googling powers.

• git clone this repo to a path (here it is in ~/bin/sting, or you may prefer /opt/sting, or any other path meets your taste);

• mkdir -p ~/.config/sting

• cp your/sting/path/aliases ~/.config/sting/

• cp your/sting/path/colors ~/.config/sting

• edit both files to your taste

• you can test it running python your/sting/path/sting.py on a terminal

• bind a keystroke to sting acording to your system

• sting's lightness and freshness is ready for your finger tips

Keybind hint for crunchbang users:

• open ~/.config/openbox/rc.xml
• find the line with <keybind key="W-space">
• change this tag's command to python your/sting/path/sting.py

• when the 'type it' screen apears, start typing the name of the alias you want to run; when the autocompletion shows what you expect press Enter;
• press Backspace to remove the last entered character;
• press Escape to clear what you typed, and again to close the window;
• that's it.

Use it as you wish, do not blame me.
