Another way to create a screen sharing shortcut
Authored by: kiltbear on Dec 22, '10 08:52:30AM

Nice! It's kind of one of those "Doh! forehead slap" moments because it is a logical combination of so many other hints. "Why didn't I think of that?!"

For those who use things like Launchbar (Quicksilver?) you can create a shortcut for "search" like vnc = vnc://*

This is nice if you have LOTS of systems that you don't want to scatter icons about for or are more of a keyboard shortcut type person.

So now, I just activate Launchbar, type vnc, space, system-name, return. You can also do things like smb = smb://* or afp = afp://* or any other URLs that have handlers on your system (ftp, ssh, etc.)
