NAME

       matchbox-desktop - a desktop application launcher for resource-limited systems

SYNOPSIS

       matchbox-desktop [options]

DESCRIPTION

       matchbox-desktop  uses  the  desktop background to provide an application launcher. It reads the standard
       desktop entry specification files also used by GNOME and KDE to discover the  applications  available  on
       the system.

       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.
