Awn Extras

From AWN Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Awn Extras is a project focusing on providing a number of important applets (not unlike the panel applets for Gnome and Xfce) in a single package, along with a number of plugins that allow applications to better interface with Awn's task manager. These applets range from a Trash applet to fancy workspace switcher.
