.SH NAME

gmrun \- Featureful CLI-like GTK+ application launcher
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B gmrun \fR\fI[TEXT]\fR
|
|
.br
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
This manual page documents briefly the
|
|
.B gmrun
|
|
command.
|
|
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
|
|
because the original program does not have a manual page.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
|
|
.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics,
|
|
.\" respectively.
|
|
\fBgmrun\fP is a program that allows a user to use a CLI-like interface to launch applications from within the X11 windowing environment. It is based on the GTK+ toolkit.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
If gmrun is invoked with a command-line parameter, that will be the initial content of the dialog box.
|
|
.PP
|
|
gmrun can be customized using a configuration file, ~/.gmrunrc . The system-wide configuration file is /etc/gmrunrc .
|
|
.PP
|
|
The format of the configuration file is simple; "variable = value". To refer to a variable as opposed to setting it, enclose the variable in ${}.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Example:
|
|
variable1 = foobar
|
|
.br
|
|
newvariable = ${variable1} foobaz
|
|
.TP
|
|
Were this placed within the configuration file, the gmrun variable "newvariable" would contain the text "foobar foobaz". Some variables that are understood by gmrun, by default. These are:
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Terminal
|
|
The command to run when Ctrl+Enter is pressed with no command entered; used to start a new terminal.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B TermExec
|
|
The command to run when Ctrl+Enter is pressed with a command entered. The entered command is supplied as an argument to TermExec.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Width
|
|
Initial width of gmrun window.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Top, Left
|
|
Initial placement of gmrun window - specify both Top and Left variables such that the gmrun window is placed at pixel (Top,Left) of your desktop.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B History
|
|
Number of entered commands which should be kept in gmrun's history(~/.gmrun_history). Using the Up and Down arrow keys within the gmrun window will cycle through the history. You can search backwards through the history with Ctrl+R or by writing \fB!\fP (exclamation mark), and forward with Ctrl+S. To cancel a search, hit Ctrl+G or the \fIESC\fP key. Otherwise, after you have found the history item you wish to run, hit Enter.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B ShowLast
|
|
Whether to show the last command as initial text, or an empty textarea (1 or 0).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Selected
|
|
Whether the initial text should be selected or not (1 or 0).
|
|
.SH URL HANDLING
|
|
As opposed to entering a command, gmrun supports the entering of URLs. The included configuration file(/etc/gmrunrc) gives some examples. To set up your own url, create a variable in /etc/gmrunrc or ~/.gmrunrc with the format of "URL_protocol". For instance, URL_http. Here is an example:
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B URL_http = /usr/bin/mozilla %u
|
|
Using this, entering "http://www.slashdot.org" will run '/usr/bin/mozilla http://slashdot.org'.
|
|
.TP
|
|
gmrun may also strip the protocol and colon away from the entered URL before passing it to the defined program. For example:
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B URL_mailto = mutt %s
|
|
Using this, entering "mailto:david@eelf.ddts.net" will run the command 'mutt david@eelf.ddts.net'
|
|
.TP
|
|
The included configuration files has a few examples which you can work with. You should also note that the protocol part of URL_protocol can be *anything*. You can set up "URL_foobarbazcustom", and so long as you enter in "foobarbazcustom:<whatever>", it will use the given program. Have fun :)
