# 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!
