A portable distribution of the community version of Humanized Enso Launcher for Windows with some additional commands
(C) 2011-2012 g/christensen (gchristnsn@gmail.com)
v0.1.6
Description: the Enso Launcher application allows to launch programs found in the Windows Start menu (or picked manually using the `learn as open' command) and perform many other operations with text command line triggered by pressing the CAPSLOCK key. It's possible to create your own commands using Python programming language.
v0.1.6 (Python 2.7)
v0.1.5 (Python 2.5)
-
There is no need to hold down the CAPSLOCK key as in the original version (it's only necessary to hit it once, the settings could be adjusted at the enso/config.py file).
-
Use the `help' command to get the list of available commands.
-
The GIT repository contains only the Enso source code without a Python interpreter, it's more convenient to use the binary package above (which includes a trimmed down Python interpreter) to develop your own commands, so you need only the Notepad to do this.
-
To add a new command you need to put a Python file with its source code into the `commands' folder under the Enso root directory (see the docs on command authoring).
I haven't found any Enso command package suitable for my needs, so I decided to make my own one. If you like Enso, you can use the source code freely as you wish, see more at the Enso Launcher page (the original application is orphaned now). The source code of the original community Enso application could be found here: https://launchpad.net/enso/community-enso (also probably orphaned).
