Switch Between Multiple Lists Of Apps Pinned To Unity Launcher With Launcher List Indicator Updated Again
Switch Between Multiple Lists Of Apps Pinned To Unity Launcher With Launcher List Indicator Updated Again
Launcher List Indicator is a simple AppIndicator that makes it easy to switch between multiple lists of Unity Launcher icons (apps pinned to the launcher).
The indicator allows saving applications that are pinned to the Unity launcher as a list that can later be restored from the its menu.
This is useful if you often use the same computer for multiple purposes. For instance, you can have a profile with applications that you only use for work, another profile with for web-related stuff, and another one for gaming, and easily switch between them using Launcher List Indicator.
Update 1: Launcher List Indicator now includes options to hide the indicator label (so only an icon is displayed), toggle Unity launcher visibility, and to change the indicator icon.
Also, the app now ships with a monochrome icon, and Ive set it as default for the package from the WebUpd8 PPA. You can still use the old icon if you want, by selecting Extras > Change icon from the indicator menu, and then selecting the colored Launcher List Indicator icon (indicator-icon-orig.png) from /usr/share/pixmaps/.

Update 2: the AppIndicator features a new option which allows clearing the Unity Launcher (removes favorites, so you can easily create a new profile). This can be accessed from the indicator menu > Extras > Clear Launcher.
Update 3: Launcher List Indicator can now automatically change the profile based on the current workspace:
To access this feature, select "Toggle workspace switcher" from the "Extras" menu.
After configuring this for the first time, the "Toggle workspace switcher" menu item can be used to enable / disable this feature. To reconfigure the profiles used for each workspace, use the Extras > Reconfigure Workspace List (this only shows up after it was configured once).
Other changes with this update include:
- middle-click on indicator calls dialog for saving current launcher as a profile
- hovering over indicator icon and scrolling up switched lists backwards, scrolling down - switches forward
Heres an updated screenshot which includes these new features:
Install Launcher List Indicator
To install Launcher List Indicator, you can use its official PPA. To add the PPA and install the indicator in Ubuntu, use the following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:launcher-list-indicator/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install launcher-list-indicatorOnce installed, launch it from Dash.
To have Launcher List Indicator start automatically on login, youll need to add it to startup. To do this, launch "Startup Applications" from Dash, click "Add", enter anything you want under "Name", and use "launcher-list-indicator" in the "Command" field.

Switch Between Multiple Lists Of Apps Pinned To Unity Launcher With Launcher List Indicator
Launcher List Indicator is a simple AppIndicator that makes it easy to switch between multiple lists of Unity Launcher icons (apps pinned to the launcher).

This is useful if you often use the same computer for multiple purposes. For instance, you can have a profile with applications that you only use for work, another profile with for web-related stuff, and another one for gaming, and easily switch between them using Launcher List Indicator.
Launcher List Indicator is pretty basic. It allows switching between profiles (obviously), saving and removing profiles. There are no settings, and it doesnt ship with a monochrome panel icon (you can change its icon if you want, by replacing the "indicator-icon.png" file - if youve used the PPA package, this can be found in /opt/launcher-list-indicator/).
Install Launcher List Indicator
To install Launcher List Indicator, you can use the main WebUpd8 PPA. To add the PPA and install the indicator in Ubuntu, use the following commands:
If you dont want to add the PPA, you can download the deb from HERE.sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt update
sudo apt install launcher-list-indicator
Once installed, launch it from Dash.
To have Launcher List Indicator start automatically on login, youll need to add it to startup. To do this, launch "Startup Applications" from Dash, click "Add", enter anything you want under "Name", and use "launcher-list-indicator" in the "Command" field.

Sublime Text Sync your configuration and packages between multiple machines
Sublime Text Sync your configuration and packages between multiple machines
When you code from multiple locations and machines, you always aim to have the same development enviroment if possible. Now syncing Sublime Text between multiple machines is as easy as installing a package.
You should start from your already well configured setup and install "Package Syncing" in package control. If you have no idea how to do that, read about it here: https://packagecontrol.io/
To set up the sync, you can use dropbox or any other cloud service. Run "Package Syncing: Define Sync Folder" from the command palette and set the syn directory.
In my case it became /home/tenchi/Dropbox/Apps/SublimeText
On the other machines just make a clean install, set up package control, install the Package Syncing package and set the same path as before (assuming you use the same cloud service and same directories). Restart Sublime Text and it should sync all packages and settings.
