sorry for late reply, i was gone for a week.

you need python-keybinder, python-vte, python-xlib and... python-notify apparently, i forgot to mention that one in readme.
please install the missing part and let me know if that worked for you

thanks!

You can make the desktop file (menu) have a terminal icon by simply using:
Icon=terminal

When I try to run xfcon I get

$ xfcon
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/xfcon/xfcon.py", line 19, in 
    import pynotify
ImportError: No module named pynotify

Guys,

I just open-sourced the application i've been working on in the past weeks. it's not yet fully featured, it lacks configuration, but i think you're going to like it anyway

i call it xfcon, it's a versatile, extensible xfce pulldown console, primarily meant for terminal applications (but i could name a dozen of useful plugins for that - log viewers, adb for android developers, you name it).

but let's make it short: pick it up here:

look up configuration keys here (sorry, no configuration support just yet):

https://github.com/tomasz-wiszkowski/Xf … ettings.py

i hope you like it! all your feedback is more than welcome!
