Just Do IT!
Thursday, June 5th, 2008Just discovered one of the most usefull apps I have come upon in a long time, Gnome DO!
This program makes programs and actions in them really easy. I have for instance installed the pidgin plugin for it, I hit “Windows button (super) - Space”, type the first few letters in a contacts email and voila, you have a open chat window with your friend.
I have a few icons to connect to various Windows terminal servers. I can hit Super-Space and then the first few letters of the hostname and whamm, I’m in. Same goes for ssh sessions, type for instance “root@mach”->Enter and I’m in.
This program is very similar to Quicksilver for MacOS X.
Here you can find some Gnome DO videos.
