What is it?
GeoMenuLaunch is one of the major Geoshell plugins. It is used to place your menus or application shortcuts on a Geobar . It combines GeoMenu and GeoLaunch into one plugin, thereby replacing them. You can add it to a Geobar using the Geobar-menu, or by dragging and dropping a file, folder, or link from your filemanager to the Geobar of your choice.
GeoMenuLaunch has it's own configuration menu: just do a ctrl+right-click on the plugin.
