Plank in Launchpad

Plank

Registered 2011年01月14日 by Robert Dyer

Stupidly simple.

What Is Plank?

Plank is meant to be the simplest dock on the planet. The goal is to provide just what a dock needs and absolutely nothing more. It is, however, a library which can be extended to create other dock programs with more advanced features.

(Codenames for releases are currently based on the characters of "Ed, Edd n Eddy".)
