Whisker Menu in Mate?


Is it possible to use the Whisker Menu with Cinnamon or Mate? I like the simpler and more compact layout of the Whisker Menu - at least what I have seen in screen shots.

Whisker Menu in Mate?

Thanks ROK. I've asked this question in a couple of other forums and a response I got in one of them suggests that it should work. When I've had a chance to try it out I'll post back to all the forums where I've asked the question.

What's the status of Cardapio? Is it under development or still on hold?

Whisker Menu in Mate?

I installed the Whisker Menu in Mate via the Software Manager, but I don't see how to activate it. Do I need something else?

Though I can't swear to it. Because I only run whisker menu in xfce.

I figure if you go to Menu>All Applications>Preferences>Startup applications

You can get whisker to start up after a mate desktop login from there.

You will have to add whisker menu to the list of startup applications to see.

Like I said, I can't swear to it because I have not tried this.
