Welcome to Superkb!
Superkb is a graphical application launcher for Linux. It works by activating upon a hotkey press, usually Super_L or Super_R (better known as "the Windows key"). On activation it shows a keyboard on screen with the keys and its corresponding actions.

News
Version 0.17
2009-03-18: Superkb 0.17. We have Superkb source code hosted under Git, and this is why this version took so long to get released. The Git repository includes all of the history from CVS and SVN, and it is looks very nice.
So, what's new in 0.17? Support for Xinerama. No official screenshots yet, but some in-the-meanwhile pictures can be seen on a post (in Spanish) from my blog.
Version 0.16
2008-04-04: Superkb 0.16. This is one version I'm very glad to announce. The text drawing code now uses Xft, and there is a very ugly race condition fixed. Sorry, no screenshots yet.
Version 0.15
2008-02-20: Superkb 0.15. This one has two major changes. First, two new, experimental and configurable painting methods. Please see the screenshots for details. The second one is the rewritten code for label painting. This code has better criteria for choosing the size and position of key labels.
