Gnome Pie: new application launcher

gnome foot is an application inspired by a World of Warcraft add-on called OPie, which tries to offer a different way of run applications en Gnome.

gnome foot It consists of several "cakes", each one being triggered by a set keyboard shortcut.

Each "cake" has its own role: an application category, a media control, a multimedia application control (play / pause / next / previous), a control that allows you to control the active window (maximize, restore , close, etc.) and so on.

You can also create custom "cakes" or delete existing ones. so you have full control over what each cake does.
