Question: Is there a launcher plugin somewhere?

Hi.

I really like gBar. I only miss two things:

• the possibility to add launchers. Is there somewhere a plugin for it? Couldn't find one.
• can I pass the config location when starting? I would like to have separate configs for top and left bar.

Thanks!

the possibility to add launchers. Is there somewhere a plugin for it? Couldn't find one.

AFAIK there isn't such a plugins. In fact, I'm not aware of any public third-party plugins for gBar. Since a launcher has also been something on my agenda for quite some time now, I maybe implement it upstream some time soon-ish.

can I pass the config location when starting? I would like to have separate configs for top and left bar.

Done! The option is "-c" or "--config". Note that this also affects the CSS search path and special characters like "~" for the home directory cannot currently be used.

Wow. Thanks!

+1 for a launcher plugin, would be amazing to support both "launch icons" and "drawers" (opening a list of "launch icons").

I would like a simple Icon to launch wofi or rofi (mostly just for my wife who does not know the hotkey). Thanks for your great work
