Docky: Another OS X-like Doc
OS X users love their Dock..and with good reason. Not only is it a handy way to launch applications, it's also rather stylish. I have covered a tool that had a similar look and feel before (see my article “Avant Window Navigator: OS-X like dock on Linux desktop“) and although that tool served it's purpose well, at times it could be a bit buggy.
Docky is a little bit different. Docky is really nothing more than a front-end for Gnome Do (for more information on GNOME Do, check out my article “Don't search, do – with GNOME Do“) that also serves as a really solid doc bar for the launching of applications in a very OS X like fashion.
In this article I will show you how to install and use Docky.
