# Edit the "create_app_button" parts like these to add your own apps -
# create_app_button{app_frame, "App Label", "Command/App to execute", "/path/to/app/icon.png", x, y, script_dir}
# "true" is a dummy executable, used to test if the buttons are working. Replace with it other executable commands.
# You can drop your own icons for your shortcut in the "icons" folder, then identify it in the code, or provide an absolute path for the icon.
# x is the row and y is the column. Keep script_dir untouched.
