I almost like the GNOME-Shell and would love it, if this is possible:

  • searching windows, applications and files when pressing the super key
  • searching the menu when pressing the Alt key

This is possible in Unity but I don't want to fallback to that slow one. So how is this solveable in GNOME-Shell?

  • Okay. This is how I could get the alt-key behaviour back - in fact it doesn't show any results when I type something in. But now gnome-shell and unity-2d-shell is running and with that I could fully fallback to unity. Isn't there any extension that search files after pressing super and/or search the registered menu items after pressing alt? – Mike Aug 01 '12 at 20:43

No recent files in GNOME Shell

Is there a shell-independent HUD-like menu search tool for Xfce/GNOME/Cinnamon?
