#### Compact categorized X11 popup launcher summoned at mouse cursor via hotkey

A Linux X11 alternative to App-Start. Independent open-source project, not
affiliated with or endorsed by App-Start. Summoning via global X11 hotkey
uses XGrabKey on X11; Wayland-native sessions cannot intercept global hotkeys
from external clients.

FEATURES
• Popup Menu Designer & Live Summon: summon a compact categorized popup menu
directly at the X11 mouse cursor (edge-clamped inside the active RandR
monitor) with Left Categories (Pinned, All Apps, Folders, Open Windows),
instant search filtering, and Up/Down/Enter/Esc keyboard navigation.
• Real System Apps & Folders Catalog: automatically indexes real .desktop
application entries (/usr/share/applications, /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications,
~/.local/share/applications) and real home folders, with pinning, custom
categories, and direct process launching.
• Usage Frequency & Behavior Rules: SQLite usage counter promotes frequent
commands, configurable global X11 hotkey (Ctrl+Alt+Space), focus-out
auto-close, and EN/VI interface toggle.
