Kick me!

Intoducing KickBox, 0.1, the product of one Linux geek's compulsive, three-year search for ultimate desktop power!

Kickbox is a collection of configuration files for the Fluxbox window manager. Fluxbox has long been popular among power users and hardcore geek types for it's awesome flexibility and infinite programmability. Kickbox intends to make Fluxbox attractive and accessible to everyone.

Here's what's new:

Kickbox's menu integrates the Fluxbox window manager with KDE applications, especially Konqueror and KPager, to give Desktop users a more graphical, point-and-click experience when they want it. Konqueror is replete with its own menus that most KDE users never really need, but Kickbox has been written to take full advantage of these features.

The menu and key configuration files are replete with templates that make programming the interface easy to understand, and even easier to do. Fluxbox can be set up to do just about anything... anything... with a click or a modified keystroke. Now, with the added templates, the basic structure of the command is all ready in place, with examples to follow. Just add a little basic information, uncomment the item (remove the "#" from the opening line, and your interface is customized with your own personal command.

And also, there is the Kickpage, a souped-up homepage for konqueror that uses html to navigate your desktop (as a combination web browser/file manager, Konqueror can do just about anything with html.)
