Linux桌面上的小饼饼,让启动应用分外不同!
最近,你能听到很多关于Ubuntu新的Unity界面的抱怨。我记得,当Unity开始兴起的时候,我正好离开Archlinux。然而,Unity间接地导致了一个后果:随着人们对它不满意,人们开始关注其他的桌面环境和Linux发行版。而如果你的系统支持Unity,没有人会反对将它弄得更顺眼些。
所以今天我向你推荐一个绝对原创的程序启动器: Gnome-Pie。你们可能会认为他的灵感来自魔兽世界插件"OPie"。因为他们有着相似的概念: 键盘快捷方式可以打开圆形"菜单",您可以从中选择一个应用程序或命令来启动。这种设计背后的主要思想是用户不必记住命令,但需要记住他的方向和操作。它的饼形设计让指针可以用同样的距离启动每个应用程序。再加上我们还有如此多自定义组合键,极大的提高效率并且最大限度地实现了人机工程学。
安装Gnome-Pie
在Ubuntu上,Gnome-Pie 可以从universe仓库中获得, 但是,某些原因,这个版本不是很稳定,常常会崩溃。作为一个备选方案,我建议你从官方的源进行下载。
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:simonschneegans/testing
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install gnome-pie
在Fedora, 你可以使用以下命令:
$ sudo yum install gnome-pie
对于Archlinux, 你可以在AUR找到它。
Gnome-Pie的基本用法
默认的,Gnome-Pie有一个比较可靠的初始配置。首先,你可以使用 Ctrl + Alt + a 调出,它将显示你的系统的基本应用程序。
接下来, 按下 Ctrl+Alt+b 调出第二个圆,这将显示你的文件管理器的书签。
第三个,也许是最有用的,它会显示你的应用程序菜单,按下 Ctrl + Alt + 空格 可调出。
第四个,仅用于控制音乐播放器。你可以猜到,快捷键是 Ctrl + Alt + m。
第五个,你可以快速访问重新启动、 关机和注销命令 (Ctrl + Alt + q,我猜q是代表退出吧)。
最后,第六个,你可以用Pie来控制窗口,可以最小化、 规模、 关闭, 等等. 并且,快捷键是 Ctrl+Alt+w。
虽然我发现这种默认设置已经是相当令人满意,几乎和预置的启动器一样好。然而,如果让我鸡蛋里找骨头,我会说一些快捷方式很难用一只手执行。大多数情况是,我们用两只手打开菜单,然后再回到鼠标以选择该选项。太不爽了。
然而,我们在用 Linux!谁会在乎默认设置?自定义才是王道。Gnome-Pie将为你提供优良的服务。通过配置,你可以编辑现有的Pie,改变程序图标,设计自己的Pie,改变主题,甚至将另外一个Pie菜单作为一个子菜单。
你甚至可以编辑它来访问 URL、 自由设置热键、运行你自己的命令。惟一的缺憾可能是它缺少Widgets。
总之,相较于传统的基于文本的启动器,Gnome-Pie是一个相当有吸引力的可视化应用程序。我很喜欢他的自定义键盘和鼠标组合键,让我想起了我在War3或者LOL中的神级操作。如果玩家使用这种操作方式,它可以为你带来方便和高效。如果你想节约桌面空间,我甚至建议你不要将预置的启动器放到桌面上。总之,我甚至敢说它可以替代Gnome。
你觉得怎么样?你在所有相信世界上有这么好的东西吗?或者说,随着新的Gnome shell出现,Gnome-Pie开始失去竞争力?欢迎评论。
