NAME

       mb-applet-launcher - an application launcher panel applet

SYNOPSIS

       mb-applet-launcher [options] [action] image_file application

DESCRIPTION

       mb-applet-launcher  is  a panel applet which can be used to start a given application. The
       applet displays the PNG or XPM file given on the command line as an  icon,  and  when  the
       user clicks on the icon the application is started.

       Matchbox  is  a  base  environment for the X Window System running on non-desktop embedded
       platforms such as handhelds, set-top boxes, kiosks and  anything  else  for  which  screen
       space, input mechanisms or system resources are limited.

OPTIONS

       -display display
              X display to connect to

       --title title

       --no-animation
              Disable any animations

       --start, -s
              Start application immediately

       The  default action is to iconize/uniconize the selected application. Other actions can be
       specified as command-line options:

       --kill, -k
              Destroy the application

       --respawn, -l
              Respawn multiple instances of the application

       --message, -m
              Display output from the application as a message from the panel

       Alternatively, a valid .desktop file can be given:

       --desktop .desktop_file
              Any actions given with this option will have no effect. Similar  behaviour  can  be
              achieved by including a `SingleInstance=True' key pair in the .desktop file.
