Launchy is a open source keystroke Launcher for Linux and Windows

Launchy is the most efficient way to open files, folders, websites, and programs on your computer. Nobody likes to hunt through the start menu to find an application, just to find that the application is hidden under some obscure folder named after a company you have never heard of! Instead, Launchy is a smart search program which tries to guess which program or file you are looking for and will launch it when you hit the enter key. It is only visible when you hit the alt+space (windows) or control+space (Linux) key combination; otherwise it hides in the background. Once you have used it for a few days, it becomes an indispensable utility for your computer. And it’s free!

I had installed Launchy version 1.03 in my windows xp desktop (a long time ago), but it is an old version. Launchy version 2.1.1 is available to download for Windows and for linux now. That’s great !

I really can not to survive without Launchy any more.

I will post here further about what I’m thinking about Launchy for Linux.
