README

text
This program was made with Lazarus Free Pascal 0.9.30.2 and requires fpc and LCL to 
compile.

There has to be a /usr/share/applications folder.
A .applications folder at home will override it.

The first execution will be slow because the program caches the icons in high resolution.

For every change in icon theme the .apps folder at home must be cleaned manually.

That's probably all I'll be doing for this project.
It has certain bugs, like for example, icons don't exactly match their click boxes vertically.
All in all it is in usable state, though, and I use it just fine.

UPDATE

Check out my other project: pylaunch. Mostly the same thing, but made in python tk. Doesnt cache icons.
