Kicker is the application launcher panel of the Trinity Desktop Environment. Besides the Menu, where you can start applications, Kicker is also capable of running docked applets like the pager, the taskbar or the clock, and extensions, such as child panels.
Kicker usually resides on the bottom of the desktop, but it can also be moved to any other border.
The panel gives you quick access to applications and makes it easier for you to organize your desktop. Using the TDE panel you can:
Launch applications using the menu or the application buttons.
Switch desktops using the panel's pager applet.
Switch active windows, and minimize or maximize them.
Browse folder using the browser menu functionality.
Access panel applets that extend the panel's functionality, offering for example mixers, clocks or a system monitor.
Please report any problems or feature requests to the TDE mailing lists.
