key-mon don't want to install on Linux Mint MATE 22.3 - PixLab - 04-28-2026

Yes it's a python 2.7 problem, I changed MX Linux for Linux Mint MATE Big Grin

So, I just discovered one in the key-mon spirit, it's called kmcaster > https://github.com/flathub/com.whitemagicsoftware.kmcaster/releases/tag/1.1.0
I downloaded the .jar (make it executable)
Then for the shortcut in the menu and Plank, I did put a 'kmcaster-launch.sh' in my 'patrice' directory with
Code:
#!/bin/bash
cd "/home/patrice/Applications/"
# -d 50 is dimension-height in pixels (default is 100. accept only integer)
java -jar "kmcaster.jar" -d 50

the mouse wheel works, does not have a right click menu, I close the app from the panel/Plank icon with a right click or Alt+F4, does not have all the whistle and bells of key-mon, but it works just well and fine and the size is adjustable from the .sh (which key-mon wasn't)

I might know some-one who could be interested... Rich? Big Grin
