gmrun, always

Memo to self: gmrun is my application launcher of choice. Replace the Ubuntu default from gconf-editor. Look for metacity keybindings.

update for compiz:

1) apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager

2) run ccsm

3) goto general->commands

4) in an empty line put “gmrun” (without quotes).

5) goto general->key bindings

6) Add a keybinding for the command line you just added. If you pick Alt-F2, you’ll be told that it’s already in use but you can override that.
