I think it's clear that launching MacOSX apps is /not/ what the Terminal was invented for, or you wouldn't have to resort to massive alias creation in order to make it usable for that purpose. This script is a much cleaner way of quickly making all your applications accessible than anything that requires bringing up the Terminal.

How is making aliases a "resort"? It's what they're for. Add in autocompletion and I can launch any app by just typing the first few letters.

I think you're reaching for reasons to hate terminal.
