For deskbar: remove beagle, install Tracker (tracker is *much* faster than beagle)
-
Quicksilver — GnomeLaunchBox works pretty well.
-
Emacs
-
There is a Quicksilver type launcher for Linux, called Katapult. Look into it.
-
For Dashboard, Use Screenlets, http://screenlets.org/index.php/Home, they first will appear on your desktop, but then you can set them to act like widgets. Then set up compiz-fusion in the advanced settings to use the Widget Layer plugin.
-
As for a decent text editor why not just use gedit (which is part of ubuntu). It is very configurable and has decent syntax highlighting features (and even lets you map function keys to perform various commands)
-
In regard to TextMate, you might want to try out Geany; I recently discovered it and found it to be quite nice.
-
Dashboard - SuperKaramba is very much like the Dashboard, but not a total rip-off. OS X widgets may are even planned to be directly supported in future versions.
-
Scribes for text editing
-
Try DreamLinux, maybe the best Mac-like distro:
-
Avant Window Navgator (Awn) is a dock-like bar which sits at the bottom of the screen (in all its composited-goodness) tracking open windows.
-
I think Jedit.org is much more poweful than textmate, check the Ruby plugin:
-
try bluefish for textmate replacement, its way better then textmate, and comperes very much to barebones BBedit
-
Superkaramba (soon to be massively enhanced with KDE4)
-
Krita is better than Gimp. It’s also the only linux graphics software which supports all colourspaces in a full-on professional way
-
gDesklets as a replacement for dashboard
