Classic 'start menu' style standalone application launcher written in QT, that can be used with any panel (or without one)

By Will Brokenbourgh

###Features

  • Checks /usr/share/applications and ~/.local/share/applications.
  • Checks every time menu is shown -- newly installed apps should appear right away.
  • Foreground and background colors can be customized.
  • Qt Menu Standalone position can be customized (defaults to lower-left).
  • Custom frequently-used programs can be displayed (at top of menu).
  • Commands for Run..., Exit, Reboot and Shutdown can be customized.
  • Menu item icon theme can be customized
  • All options are set in the .qtmenu config file
  • Using default options, should respect settings by Qt Config (possibly KDE...don't know yet)
  • Hide / show Gnome, KDE, LXDE and other desktop environment items

###Current Issues

  • Only displays English text
  • Only complete icon themes should be used otherwise huge icons may appear (is Qt4 problem)
  • Has problems finding icons for certain apps (Qt issue, Gtk finds them fine)
  • No tooltips for menu items. I do not want them. Feel free to hack and add that! erp
  • Is my first Qt project...gimme a break! erp
