Description Masayuki Nakano 2013-02-27 03:34:58 UTC
I think that D3E key name list should define more keys which launches specific application like 'LaunchMail'.

Comment 2 Masayuki Nakano 2013-02-27 08:56:13 UTC
GDK      Qt           Suggestion
GDK_Word Qt::Key_Word 'LaunchWordProcessor'
Comment 3 Gary Kacmarcik 2013-11-14 08:59:46 UTC
We've added the following Launch Application keys. We can add more as needed, but many of the GDK and Qt names seem aspirational rather than keys that are found in the real-world.

'LaunchCalculator'
'LaunchCalendar'
'LaunchMail'
'LaunchMediaPlayer'
'LaunchMusicPlayer'
'LaunchMyComputer'
'LaunchApplication'
'LaunchScreenSaver'
'LaunchSpreadsheet'
'LaunchWebBrowser'
'LaunchWebCam'
'LaunchWordProcessor'
