Gtk2 tray icon for Tomb

by Jaromil

If you like to see our nifty little skull on the upper right corner of your desktop, then compile and install this little auxiliary program.

Build

Make sure that Gcc, GNU Make, pkg-config, Gtk 2.0 and libnotify development packages are installed: in Debian and Ubuntu the packages are:

  • gcc
  • make
  • pkg-config
  • libgtk2.0-dev
  • libnotify-dev

Then launch the make command which will build the tomb-gtk-tray executable one can copy to the path (for instance ~/bin).

Usage

Use by launching tomb-gtk-tray followed by the name of your tomb as reported by tomb list. For instance if your tomb is secrets.tomb:

 $ tomb-gtk-tray secrets

The tray offers a drop-down menu with three options:

  • explore will launch your desktop configured filemanager
  • close will try to close the tomb (fails if in use)
  • slam will slam the tomb killing all applications using it

Please note you need to launch this program for each tomb you want it to administer, then you will have a skull visible for each tomb open.

By mouse-over the skull tells the name of the tomb it is open for.

Enjoy!
