mb-applet-launcher - an application launcher panel applet
SYNOPSIS¶
mb-applet-launcher [options] [action] image_file

DESCRIPTION¶
mb-applet-launcher is a panel applet which can be used to start a given
application. The applet displays the PNG or XPM file given on the command line
as an icon, and when the user clicks on the icon the application is started.
Matchbox is a base environment for the X Window System running on
non-desktop embedded platforms such as handhelds, set-top boxes, kiosks and
anything else for which screen space, input mechanisms or system resources
are limited.
OPTIONS¶
- -display display
- X display to connect to
- --title title
- --no-animation
- Disable any animations
- --start, -s
- Start application immediately
- The default action is to iconize/uniconize the selected application. Other
actions can be specified as command-line options:
- --kill, -k
- Destroy the application
- --respawn, -l
- Respawn multiple instances of the application
- --message, -m
- Display output from the application as a message from the panel
- Alternatively, a valid .desktop file can be given:
- --desktop .desktop_file
- Any actions given with this option will have no effect. Similar behaviour
can be achieved by including a `SingleInstance=True' key pair in the
.desktop file.
