Homerun, a KDE Launcher |
Features
Homerun is a fullscreen launcher for KDE 4 series with content organized in tabs. A tab is composed of several "sources". A source can provide one or more sections to a tab. Homerun comes with a few built-in sources, but custom sources can be written using libhomerun.
Homerun was replaced by the fullscreen version of the launcher in KDE 5 Plasma.

Application launcher
Homerun can browse your installed applications and start them or add them to the favorite list to be able to quickly start them from the homepage.
 |
Document hierarchy browser
Homerun lists your favorite places and let you browse them: clicking an item from the "Favorite Places" section will list the content of this folder, making it possible for you to navigate your folders to open a document without having to use a file manager.
 |
Running as a containment
Homerun can be used from a launcher button in a panel (like Kickoff), or as a containment (like the Search and Launch containment).
