I have been using Launchy for years, and found that this project has not been updated since 2010. I love this tool and want to maintain this project.

I need feedback, and you can help by reporting bugs and giving suggestions.

If you want any new feature, feel free to raise an [[https://github.com/samsonwang/LaunchyQt/issues][issue]] for it, feature request is welcome.

** Improvemenets Compared to the old one, LaunchyQt offers more as follows:

  • Locale language indexing support, such as simplified Chinese pinyin.
  • Built-in python support, develop plugins in python painlessly.
  • Python package management with pip, more easy to install 3rd-party packages.
