Hi,
I'm a GNOME fan, but used Xfce4 for a few weeks due to some of
Thunar's magnificence, and decided to try out the entire suite (on
Etch). Among others, I fell for it's run app (Alt+F2) utility named
xfrun4 (part of xfce-utils). Has anyone who ever used it ever wished
that GNOME's equivalent was like that? It's behaviour surely increases
my productivity.
It works thus:
* It only auto-completes program names that have been run with it before:
-> reduces noise and resource usage
* It won't keep auto-complete those that refused to run:
-> also eliminates history clutter from junk input
* On start-up, it displays the most recent program that was run.
