WISH Command Center is a simple program launcher for those who don't want their desktops cluttered up with huge numbers of icons, don't want to rummage through menus repeatedly for program listings, or both. It comes with a fair sample of program listings, which will automatically appear in the WISH Command Center window if the programs are in your system's PATH. A single left or right click will run a single program; the Auto-Select feature will let you pick programs to be automatically selected when WISH Command Center opens up, so you can run them all at once. Program listings can easily be added, edited, deleted, or sorted. You can also designate files or URLs to be opened with specified programs; for example, "skipstone /usr/share/doc/gnocl/doc/index.html" will invoke the SkipStone lightweight browser (if you have it installed) to display the Gnocl documentation index (if you have it installed). The KILL button invokes Xkill (included in the package), so you can bump off an unresponsive window with a single click. WISH Command Center 2009--GTK+ Edition requires Tcl and Gnocl, both of which are built into Puppy 4.2.
