About

Why?

What?

BlueRun is a small launcher application written in C using GTK. The launcher
features default action, history with auto completion, fork/execvp when
executing applications. The goal is to keep the launcher as small as
possible (~10k).

Install


Usage

BlueRun should be used with a window manager that supports running applications with a keyboard shortcut or similar.

The launcher executes the command when 'enter' is pressed and aborts on 'escape'.

BlueRun starts with a default action, xterm. This can be changed in the configuration file.

BlueRun keeps a history of your most recent commands used for auto completion. The history is stored in a file named '.bluerun_history' in your home directory and is automatically created. The launcher will not store duplicates.

The default history size is 50 entries and can be changed in the configuration file.
