[ANN] Lnchr - a Treo launcher

[horaceho]

Horace, not sure if you are willing to support Lncher on a Treo 600 as well... I have installed it on a Treo 600 and there are a few any issues with some of the features.

I'd try my best to, as I don't have a Treo 600 device. Please let me know what are the issues. Thanks.

Ditto. hope for more treo 600 support.

My TreoLauncher wish list:

1.  The 'ABC' view can have 6 col/4 row icon display with recent apps at the bottom.

2.  Can be set to start in 'ABC' view in 'All' category.

Man what a GREAT PROGRAM....how will you do updates if we register this will we have free updates? Need to pay for them?...Or how do you plan to do this?

[peter.gil]

Great app!

Are you gonna develop a non-treo version?

[bosbik]

Just have to do a quick shout out that this app is GREAT.  It does just what I was looking for a launcher to do.  It's simple, customizable look is great.  I've tried other launchers and while they're very feature rich, I had problem after problem with them.  This one is great.  I love the idea of including a message indicator in the lower right and perhaps a simple indicator that there is more than one page of apps. 
Thanks for taking the time to develop this app and responding to feedback from users.

Great launcher. Very simple. Exactly what I have been looking for. But before I buy it I am going to wait for the updates. Most everyone has already suggested them. Looking for a little more functionality with the SD card. Does not take up a lot of memory which is great.

What about changing the category names? Is there an option for it? I might just be blind..

Has anyone tried placing this in ROM in place of the system launcher yet? If so any problems?

Keep up the good work KFU

Good Launcher, trying it out and a long time Zlauncher fan. One thing i have noticed is it doesn't seem to play well with Skinner as i get resets when the device goes to put a missed call,text email number on the phone app screen? A few duplicate icons, which i am sure i will figure out when i have time.

I don't think that would work as the original Launcher is needed for Deleting apps, setting categories etc.

I think you will find that the reason this is such a small app is that it piggy backs on the Palm Launcher

I don't mean to be contrary here, but I like the fact that Treo Launcher doesn't display a scroll bar and I guess I'm hoping it isn't added.  If it is added, could it be an option the user selects (so we don't have to use it) or could there be some other indicator there are more apps. to page up or down to?

With it piggy backing. I think it would be better if you could have the options the original launcher has like the ability to edit the categories and place which apps you want in which category. When you are in the ALL category of the original launcher the apps saved on the SD card are not visible other then in the SD card category and can not be moved to another so you can't organize your apps accordingly. However from what I see with the Treo LNCHR the apps on the SD card are in the ALL category with all the other apps on the phone as well. And the SD apps are identified with a plus (+) symbol. So in the Treo LNCHRS case where it shows all the apps (SD and Phone) in one category (ALL) it only makes me wonder if you are able to set it up so the SD card apps can be moved into other categories. Does this make sense?

Regarding the scroll bar. It was in some old Treo Launcher versions. After wallpaper is supported, I am still looking for a way to do scrollbar transparency nicely but I have not found a satisfactory way yet.

Currently, Treo Launcher still relies on the system to add/rename/delete categories.

I have not tried Skinner. Is it like PalmRevolt (which works very well)?
