Description: a slim program/emulator launcher using opengl
A slim and themeable OpenGL-based dashboard and program launcher.
It's meant to be easily used on Linux HTPCs.
Can be used as emulator launcher and program launcher. has optional png picture support for both background and preview pictures.
There's also an optional autoscreenshotmode, which creates automatically a previewpicture of the launched app after user configured time.
Everything can be configured by the user, including colours, whole colourthemes, font, fontsize (any ttf font will do), optional sound effects, optional 3d icons (using glut), background and previewpictures.
System-installed screensavers can also be used as background using compositing/ transparency.
There are also several X11 functions which can be en-/disabled, like hide/show mouse, en-/disable window decoration, show on all desktops etc.
typhon also works fine with compiz and can be controlled with mouse and/or keyboard (and therefore also with remotes)
