One of my favourite applications on Windows, Launchy has finally come to Linux! I heavily rely on this software on Windows instead of looking for the software I want from the Start Menu.

Besides Launchy, there are also similar software for Linux, such as Gnome Do, but I’m still not very used to it. Gnome Do takes up to 20MB of space but Launchy takes less than 7MB.

On the latest Launchy 2.1.1 released on this 6 Aug 08 has deb package version and platform independent version.
