Default Raptor - Improved menu system for KDE 4


Quote:
A new menu for KDE4 that lists what items it thinks you are most likely to choose. For example, if you have konqueror open and you usually have it open with konsole, it will be on the list. If you already have akregator open, it knows you don't want to open it again so it won't show that.

From Home Page: http://www.raptor-menu.org/node/2
Quote:
Raptor aims to deliver a new kind of launch menu system for KDE. It is designed with usability and beauty in mind.
Raptor-Menu does not try to be the final answer to the menu question, instead aspires to be the best answer we can give, merging many ideas form modern desktop launch menus.

While we want to provide a menu that makes launching the applications faster and easier, we also want to provide a menu that is breathtakingly beautiful.

Raptor will contain the following elements to make the use easier:

* A usage database
* One panel only
* A new structure based on user actions (TOM, task oriented menu)
* Easily accessible favorites
* A better usage of the application description
* Configurability to make it suit your needs
