πŸ’– LXTASK πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the lxtask manual page β€” that's the lxtask page from the lxtask manual, and yes we're doing this whole thing together, hand in hand, no skimming 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

lxtask β€” it's a lightweight GTK+ task manager πŸ’… like, tiny, cute, gets the job done.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

lxtask

that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. no args, no flags, just vibe. ✨


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so LXTask is a lightweight and desktop-independent task manager, and the lore is that it's derived from xfce4-taskmanager β€” but they stripped out all the dependencies on xfce, added new features, and did some improvement of the user interface. it's giving glow-up, fr fr. πŸ‘‘


πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

okay so here's the thing:

  • none. like, genuinely, no options are supported by this program. zero. nada. it just runs and does its thing. not everything needs a menu, bestie πŸ’€

πŸŽ€ AUTHOR πŸŽ€

the lore drop, get comfy:

LXTask is derived from Xfce4 Task Manager. the original authors of XFce4 Task Manager were:

  • Johannes Zellner <webmaster@nebulon.de>
  • ηΏΌvaro Lopes <alvieboy@alvie.com>

then, on 2008-04-26, the LXDE team derived LXTask from Xfce4 Task Manager for the LXDE project. Copyright (C) 2008 Hong Jen Yee (PCMan) <pcman.tw@gmail.com> β€” icon behavior, honestly πŸ‘‘

and this manual page itself was written by Andriy Grytsenko <andrej@rep.kiev.ua> 🫢


ngl this one's short and sweet, which is exactly the point β€” lightweight means lightweight, no cap.

okay that's the whole page!! this was lxtask 0.1.12, from September 2014, and that's the lxtask manual wrapped up πŸ’–βœ¨ slay, go kill some processes (politely) πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹
