NAME

       matchbox-desktop  - a desktop application launcher for resource-limited
       systems

SYNOPSIS

       matchbox-desktop [options]

DESCRIPTION

       matchbox-desktop uses the desktop background to provide an  application
       launcher.  It reads the standard desktop entry specification files also
       used by GNOME and KDE to discover the  applications  available  on  the
       system.

       Matchbox  is a base environment for the X Window System running on non-
       desktop embedded platforms such as handhelds, set-top boxes, kiosks and
       anything  else  for  which  screen  space,  input  mechanisms or system
       resources are limited.
