NOTE: If you want to add a keyboard-launcher for your favourite app without recompiling, no problem. As mentioned in the above list, i've included 'free launcher'. What does that mean?
I've assigned the apps dwmAF1 - dwmAF12 and dwmASF1 - dwmASF12 to the keycombos Alt + F1 ... Alt + F12 and Alt+Shift + F1 ... Alt+Shift + F12.
So if you want a new shortcut for e.g. gnumeric you make a symlink to gnumeric called dwmASF12 and now you could launch gnumeric with Alt+Shift+F12.
I've also included 2 dwm-backgrounds.
Compiled and tested in 4.31.
