GNOME Do (Do) is an intelligent launcher tool that makes performing common tasks on your computer simple and efficient. It allows you to search items in your desktop environment (e.g. applications, contacts, bookmarks, files, music), and it also allows you to specify actions to perform on search results (e.g. run, open, email, chat, play).

Want to send an email to Rick? Just type "email Rick", Want to listen to music? - Just type "play Rolling Stones". It provides instantaneous, action-oriented desktop search results that adapt to reflect your habits and preferences. Example: if you use Firefox web browser often, typing "f" in Do will launch it. Or, if you visit DetectorPro webpage often, Do will open it if you simply type "dp".

Unlike other search tools that present search results as flat, homogeneous lists, Do provides familiar graphical depictions of search results that assure you that your intent is being realized correctly; searching for "mom" will show a picture of mom, and searching for "beatles" will show a Beatles album cover. Do has many more powerful and exciting capabilities that must be seen to be appreciated.
