Hello!

It would be very useful, if there was an option to reload katapult after the programms are installed. Up to now it is necessary to exit and restart katapult. And then I cant use katapult to start katapult :).

So my wish is:
-enable an option to reload program list. Maybe as a command in the katapult window or/and as an option in the menu of the tray icon.
OR (and/or)
-make it possible that katapult does this on its own. Can it be called by apt-get in anyway? But that wouldn't include compiled software. So first option seems to be best.

What do you think?

Openup the "configure katapult" screen and close it, it'll reload the list then

Ok it can be done. Very good. But how does the user know? Wouldnt it be better to implement a button that does the same, but can be found more easily.

 opening the config and it works is too much ununderstandable magic for users.
