Launcher Description:
Fast and light utility that speeds up the way you work on your Mac!
Features:
* Application Launcher
There are several ways to launch applications.
You can simply start typing the application name in the search string and you’ll immediately get the list of apps displayed in alphabetical order.
You can use abbreviations, for example, “qtp” for QuickTime Player, “ab” for the Address Book, “rml” for Remind Me Later.
Finally you can manually assign a handy command to specific app to launch it.
* Web Searches
You can send queries to search engines right from the Launcher. All you need is to choose your favourite among the dozens of search engines like Google, Yahoo, Bing, eBay, Youtube, and Wikipedia and assign them to short or even one-letter commands, for example, "g" - for Google, "e" - for eBay, "w" - for Wikipedia.
Next time you need information enter the command and the search query with a space and Launcher will open your default browser with search results. For example, “e apples” will lead you to an eBay page with the results for “apples”.
* Commands
Launcher will help you to simplify most common everyday actions like Mute, Play/Pause, Restart, Shutdown and others.
* Dictionary
You can use Launcher as a superfast dictionary.
Look up word definitions, choose most suitable meanings and copy them for further use right from the app.
* Fast Access to Files, Folders & URLs
Launcher is a flexible replacement for aliases. You can open certain files and folders with simple commands or abbreviations.
You can do the same thing for URLs and make your favourite websites easier to reach.
* Scripts
You can execute shell commands without Terminal.app.
For example, you can assign a shell command “/usr/bin/say $” to a word of command like “say”. After that Launcher will pronounce anything you enter ...
