Showing/hiding Cardapio now two times faster
============================================
Showing/hiding Cardapio from Docky or Unity used to take about 550ms. This was a bit too much. Now, after reducing the loading-time of some Python libraries from 300ms to 1ms, this process takes only 250ms or so. This is twice as fast as before, and much more usable!
[ Note that this only applies to Cardapio in Docky or Unity. Opening Cardapio from the Gnome Panel, AWN, or when in stand-alone mode was always much faster than this, and has stayed that way :) ]

Added a Cardapio.desktop file, for use in Unity or other docks
==============================================================
To use Cardapio in your favorite dock, you can now just navigate to the /usr/share/applications folder using Nautilus, and then drag the Cardapio icon into the dock. Done!
And this method works pretty much anywhere. XFCE, LWDE, Docky, Unity, KDE, and so on. Whatever supports .desktop files!
Finally, this also includes support for a Unity quick-list for launching Cardapio's preferences window. A nice little touch :)
~
...and many bug fixes, as usual! One nice fix to mention is that Cardapio's core package no longer depends on Gnome libraries, making it a lightweight installation in other environments.
July 2011 update: Faster! Faster!
New shortcuts
=============
Work faster than ever with new shortcuts:
- Use Ctrl+N to launch the Nth result (for example, Ctrl+2 opens the second result)
- Use Shift+Enter or Shift-click on a folder to peek inside the folder
- Use Shift+Enter or Shift-click on a file to open its containing folder
