The Alt+f2 in ubuntu shows up Run Application prompt. I can type any command there and open an application through it. How can i do the same programmatically, i mean that i have a command that should be passed to Alt+F2 programmatically. By program i mean a shell script
You can use
gmrun, which can be installed from the Ubuntu repos. Justsudo apt-get install gmrun.man gmrunfor more info.It’s not exactly the same as the “run application dialog”, but there’s no clean way to bring that up from a script that I know of.
