KLAUNCHER(1)

NAME
klauncher - daemon for service activation in KDE

DESCRIPTION
!!! klauncher is started automatically by kdeinit. It is not supposed to be started manually. !!!

klauncher is a daemon responsible for service activation in KDE. It operates closely together with the kdeinit master process to start new processes. KDE applications communicate with klauncher via DCOP to start new applications or services.

The error message "KLauncher could not be reached via DCOP" either indicates a serious problem with the dcopserver or klauncher crashed.

Note: klauncher is not the "run command" dialog (Alt+F2)!
