Hello no! ;-)

The problem is that sometimes I'd like to pass arguments to programs, often in 
the form of aliases or short scriptlets in /usr/local/bin), which is not 
possible using katapult, it seems. (And I use eterm as my IRC shell which I'd 
like to have separated from my normal shells.)

Put shortly, I'd love to replace [alt]+F2 by katapult, but it's just not 
there, feature-wise yet.
