KRunner (auch: "Schnellstartfenster" ; zu Starten per Alt-F2 oder Alt-LEERTASTE) ist ein Programmstarter für die Plasma Umgebung. Seine Grundfunktion besteht im Hochfahren von Programmen aus einer Art von Mini-Kommandozeile, aber erweitert um sogenannte "runners" kann man noch weit mehr diverse Funktionen mit dem KRunner ausüben.

Note

Distributionsabhängig müssen gegebenfalls "addon" Pakete nachinstalliert werden, um alle hier genannten Funktionen zu erhalten. Mit der Schraubenschlüssel-Klickfläche können addon Pakete aktiviert oder deaktiviert werden, gerade wenn KRunner stark verlangsamt wurde, weil zuviele Pakete dort abgearbeitet werden müssen.

Feature Liste

Diese erbärmlich unvollständige Aufzählung unternimmt den Versuch, einige simple Nutzungsmöglichkeiten des KRunner darzustellen. Bitte das '?' Zeichen anklicken, um weitere Möglichkeiten zu finden.

Programme Starten und Beenden

(builtin plugin: Applications)

Sobald man die ersten drei Buchstaben des Programmnamens eingetippt hat, bietet KRunner Namensvervollständigung (herausgesucht aus dem Menü der Anwendungsprogramme) an. Dann Übernahme und Programmstart per ENTER-Taste.

You may type a single character and KRunner will start finding matches. Matches will be found to applications from your easily customizable applications menu (for that, right-click in menu).

Beispiel:

was eingetippt?	was passiert?
`gwe`	(startet Gwenview)

Ein Programmabbruch läßt sich mit KRunner bewirken. Dazu kill gefolgt vom Prozessnamen eintippen, dann wird KRunner SIGTERM (Schließen) und SIGKILL (Abbruch) für das betroffene Programm anbieten. Namensvervollständigung wird nach den ersten drei Buchstaben des Namens eines laufenden Prozesses angeboten.

Note that the keyword kill can be changed in the "Terminate Applications" runner to avoid confusion with the shell command kill which accepts process IDs.

Direct installation

(builtin plugin: Software Center)

In case that you look for an application that has not been installed yet, KRunner will suggest a set of applications that match your search. In specific, since KRunner has been integrated with Plasma Software Center, Discover, will present you a list of applications, enabling you to proceed to direct installation.

Kommandozeilenbefehle auslösen

(builtin plugin: Command Line)

Zusätzlich zu den Programmen aus dem Menü kann KRunner außerdem Kommandozeilenbefehle ausführen und Binärprogramme starten. Allerdings wird für die Shell Komandos keine Befehlsnamen-Vervollständigung angeboten, man muß also den ganzen Befehl aus dem Gedächtnis kennen.

Die Klickfläche mit Schraubenschlüssel-Symbol ermöglicht für diese Art von Befehlsausführung zusätzliche Optionen zu aktivieren. So kann das Ablaufen in der Konsole gewählt werden, etwa um den entstehenden Ausgabetext auch lesen zu können. Oder man kann ein Programm unter einem fremden Benutzer-Konto ausführen, wofür Name und Passwort benötigt wird.

Examples:

Input	Output
`ls ~/Documents`	lists contents of ~/Documents (preferably in a terminal)
`cp ~/Documents/myFile ~/myFile`	copies myFile from ~/Documents to ~/
`mplayer myMovie.mkv`	plays myMovie.mkv in mplayer

Incidentally, if the command line is your thing, you may appreciate the built in integration to man pages. Simply type a command name preceded by a # or man:/ to open the man page formatted for easy readability in your browser.

Examples:

Input	Output
`#ls`	opens the manual for ls in a browser
`man:/grep`	opens the manual for grep in a browser

Browse websites

(builtin plugins: Bookmarks, Locations, Web Search Keywords)

You can simply start typing the URL of a website to open it in your default browser. You may even type in the name of a browser bookmark and KRunner will open it for you. If you have visited the website in the past, KRunner can fetch you results from your browser's history, too.

Examples:

Input	Output
`myBookmark`	opens the bookmark in a browser
`kde.org`	opens the KDE homepage in a browser
`http://userbase.kde.org/`	opens Userbase in a browser

KRunner already knows your Web Shortcuts, found in Plasma System Settings, so you can directly start using them.

Examples:

Input	Output
`gg:KDE`	searches Google for KDE
`wp:krunner`	searches Wikipedia for krunner

KRunner also provides options to download files from the web using KGet by providing their URL.

Additional runners exist for fast searching on Wikipedia, Wikitravel and KDE Techbase.

Open files, folders and devices

(builtin plugin: Locations)

KRunner can also open files and directories on your local machine for you. If you want to browse remote machines, you can do that, too. Notice how KRunner uses kioslaves for ssh (fish:) and samba (smb:).

Examples:

Input	Output
`file:/home/`	opens file:///home/ (the Home directory) in Dolphin
`file:myMovie.mkv`	opens /home/myMovie.mkv
`fish:[email protected]`	opens fish:/[email protected]/ via fish (file over ssh) protocol
`smb:myWindowsBox`	opens smb:/myWindowsBox via Samba

If you don't know the path to a file, simply type the name of the file. If the file is a recently opened document, KRunner will list it for you. If you have enabled "File Search" provided by Baloo daemon, you can also search your computer for the file by its indexed contents. KRunner will also open folders you've bookmarked in Dolphin (in your Places sidebar) if you type their name in. What's more, if you want to access devices on your system (both mounted and unmounted), you can do that, too. KRunner will even provide device-specific options.

Examples:

Input	Output
`Home`	opens the Home directory in Dolphin
`myFlashDrive`	shows options to mount or open the contents of myFlashDrive

Multitask with sessions, windows, desktops and activities

Several KDE applications allow you to save and load sessions. KRunner allows you to launch these sessions. You can either type in the name of the application or directly type in the name of the session. Runners exist for opening sessions saved in Kate, Konqueror, Konsole, etc.

KRunner is a multitasker's dream. If you have too many windows open, just type in the title of the window and switch directly to it. You can similarly type in the name of a virtual desktop and switch directly to it. If you roll with activities, switch activities by typing their name in. KRunner will find a match as soon as you type three characters in.

KRunner will even switch desktop sessions for you. Type in the keyword switch or new session to start a separate X session. You can switch back and forth between sessions by using the switch keyword.

Examples:

Input	Output
`Desktop 1`	switches the virtual desktop to Desktop 1
`myWorkActivity`	switches the activity to myWorkActivity
`switch`	shows options to switch to an existing session or start a new one
`new session`	starts a new session

Several plasma widgets can be launched as windowed applications. You can simply type the name of a widget and KRunner will launch a window for you.

Talk to people

Type in the name of a contact in your KAddressBook to get a list of options to contact them. Typing in an email address into KRunner will open a KMail composer window. You can also search through contacts in your Kopete contact list.

The addressbook and kopete runners don't seem to be working in SC 4.8.

Examples:

Input	Output
`[email protected]`	compose a mail to the KDE mailing list
`myContact`	show options to contact myContact

Listen to some music

You can control any modern audio player such as Amarok using KRunner. You can use several keywords (all configurable) to play, pause or skip songs. Typing in the name of an artist, album or song that is in Amarok's library will let you either play immediately, play next (queue) or play at the end (append) of the current playlist. You can use keywords to increase or decrease the volume of the player, or even to mute or quit it.

Examples:

Input	Output
`play song search`	plays a song immediately
`pause`	pauses Amarok or your designated music player
`next`	plays next song in playlist

Be on time

You can get the current date or time by typing in the keywords date or time. Selecting the result will copy it to your clipboard so you can paste it elsewhere. The format of the date and time respects your system settings.

Examples:

Input	Output
`date`	Today's date is ...
`time`	The current time is ...

You can even get the date and time at another location by specifying the time zone or the city listed in the TZ database.

Examples:

Input	Output
`time UTC`	The current time in UTC is ...
`time oslo`	The current time in Europe/Oslo is ...
`time kolkata`	The current time in Asia/Kolkata is ...

There is a runner for interfacing with Korganizer and fetching events, but it doesn't seem to be working in SC 4.8.

Calculator

KRunner features a very versatile calculator that can be called by starting or ending a calculation with an = sign. In addition to basic arithmetic, you can call scientific functions like sqrt(), sin(), log(), etc. A list of the supported functions is here. Note that trigonometric functions like sin(), cos(), etc expect the angle in radians. KRunner understands pi in expressions.

Examples:

Input	Output
`32*12 =`	384
`= sqrt(4) + 32sin(30pi/180)`	18

KRunner also supports combinatorics functions, like perm() or comb().

Examples:

Input	Output
`= perm(10,5)`	30240
`= comb(10,5)`	252

KRunner can also handle symbolic mathematics and perform integration and differentiation on expressions

Examples:

Input	Output
`= integrate( -x/y^2, y )`	-x/y
`diff( log(x) ) =`	1/x

You can also use KRunner to solve polynomial functions to find its roots.

Examples:

Input	Output
`= solve( x^2 + 4*x - 21 = 0 )`	[3, -7]

KRunner intelligently handles units as part of the calculations. Try the following examples to see how.

Examples:

Input	Output
`= 2.5 kg * 10 m/s^2`	25 N
`220 V / 10 A =`	22 ohms

Since KRunner understands most units, you can use it to convert them very quickly. Note that unit conversions don't require an = sign.

Examples:

Input	Output
`30 F`	-1.11111 degrees C (°C), 273.039 K, ...
`27.8 km`	1.09449e+06 inches (in), 17.2742 miles (mi), ...
`5 gallons in liters`	18.9271 liters (l)

KRunner knows currencies, too. Conversions between currencies is done by fetching the exchange rate from the European Central Bank website.

Examples:

Input	Output
`1 dollar`	0.657002 pounds sterling (GBP), 0.742501 euros (EUR), ...
`125 euros`	110.606 pounds sterling (GBP), 15,785 yen (JPY), ...
`30 JPY in RUB`	9.40731 rubles (RUB)

Go places

If you have bookmarked locations in the Marble (in OpenStreetMap), KRunner can open the map directly.

Spell checking and special characters

KRunner can tell you whether your spelling is correct and/or suggest corrections. The default keyword to start the spellchecker is spell and can be configured.

Examples:

Input	Output
`spell linux`	Suggested words: Linux, lynx, ...

KRunner can also allow you to pick special characters if you can specify the hexadecimal unicode for the character, preceded by a # sign.

Examples:

Input	Output
`#03b2`	β
`#00b1`	±

Manage your computer

You can directly open system settings control modules from KRunner. Often, if you want to change something, just type associated terms and KRunner will find the control module with the settings you want.

Examples:

Input	Output
`keyboard`	opens the Keyboard settings control module
`fonts`	opens the fonts settings control module
`password`	opens the Password & User account control module

KRunner can also be used to adjust the screen brightness by using the keywords "screen brightness". You can specify a percentage or just turn the brightness halfway or fully down. Additionally, keywords exist to suspend, logout, shutdown or restart your machine.

Examples:

Input	Output
`screen brightness 100`	increases screen brightness to 100%
`sleep`	suspends computer to RAM
`lock`	locks the screen
`restart`	restarts computer
`shutdown`	shutdowns computer

Usage

Open KRunner

The easiest way to open KRunner is to trigger its global shortcut (Alt+Space or Alt+F2, by default). In some activities (e.g. Desktop), you can simply click on the desktop and start typing. In others (e.g. Search and Launch), KRunner may be built into the activity itself.

You can also right-click on your plasma workspace and select Run Command... or just simply launch it from the commandline by typing krunner.

Use KRunner

Use Tab/Ctrl+j or Shift+Tab/Ctrl+k to navigate up and down results. Use arrow keys to move between options (if any) in a result. Use Enter (or left click) to select a result.

Discover KRunner

Click on the wrench icon to bring up configuration options where you can enable/disable/configure runners that will process your searches. Additional options are available to change the position on the screen where krunner appears. You can even change the style to a task-oriented interface, if you like.

Clicking on the '?' icon opens a scrollable list that explains the syntax of all the available runners. This is a good way to discover new functionality!

Tips, Tricks and FAQs
