Quickly finding and launching applications is the primary aim of Dashy. To that end instant search and customizable keyboard shortcuts are built-in.
|
||||
|
||||
To start filtering, just start typing. No need to select the search bar or use any special key. You can then use either the tab key or arrow keys to select and move between results, and hit enter to launch the currently selected application. You can also use `Alt + Enter` on a selected app to launch it in a popup modal, `Ctrl + Enter` to open in new tab, or right-click on it to see all opening methods.
