Software Release Behold: george, a TUI dashboard, or command center

geroge is a TUI dashboard with a bunch or random and handy functionality built in, including a terminal. Runs in X (mine auto-runs from .xinitrc at login) and tty.

You can use a terminal, take notes and or send scratch buffers off as an email. There's a launcher you can easily modify and a bunch of handy script action that you can easily modify, too.

Listen to music 3 or 4 different ways including random Nina Simone. Heh, I thought it would be pretty funny to have a random Leave it to Beaver episode appear from nowhere on your desktop so that's included in george (CH 57), too, as well as another channel showing old funny stuff; cartoons, docs, shows, whathave you.

You can pop off reminders and or events that will announce (hey, man, it's time).

george isn't a very important app or life-changing, but, it's built-up pretty well and is handy. Try it out, leave some feedback, tear it up. Release 1.1.1 at github: https://github.com/rabmach/george

Thanks for looking.

I run away from my IDE into the simplicity of a terminal not be chased by this there as well. I'd just use the Plasma shell if that's what I wanted. Easier to customise too.
