xfce4-verve-plugin - Verve

The Verve panel plugin is a comfortable command line plugin for the Xfce panel


Features

. The Verve plugin supports several nice features, such as:

New features in version 1.1.0:


Usage

Once added to the panel, you can use the following keys to control Verve:

If you want to launch URLs or email addresses using Verve, just paste them into the input field and press ENTER.


Focus Grabbing

Verve installs a script named verve-focus which can be used to bind a keyboard shorcut for Verve to grab the focus. To do so, you first need to open the Xfce settings manager:

xfce-setting-show

Once the dialog has appeared, chose Keyboard. In the next dialog, select the Shortcuts tab and add a shortcut for verve-focus.

After this, Verve should grab the focus and start blinking whenever you press this shortcut. To stop the blinking, just type something (like a command or something else) or click on it with the mouse.
