How to get deskbar-applet in Xubuntu? Or is there any alternative box where I can type for programs/files and they appear?

I've installed deskbar-applet but I don't think I can pin it to the Xubuntu panel.

Deskbar-applet appears to be very specific to gnome and gnome-panel.

As an alternative try synapse

enter image description here

As you can see, it is invoked similarly via the XFCE panel or via a hotkey (defaults to CTRL+SPACE). There are a number of default plugins which are similar in functionality as deskbar as well.

It uses the Zeitgeist backend - so it is similar to Unity - when you use a file or application it is automatically indexed for you to find again.
