Saft - Add very useful features to Safari
Authored by: Fofer on Nov 04, '04 10:20:09AM

I concur. Saft is great, and the author is always coming out with updates. Especially right after a new version of Safari is released -- his update comes out a few hours later. He is very responsive to feedback as well.

The 'workspace' saving of your open tabs now works when Safari has crashed, which is a great safety-net. How many times have you had 14 tabs open for a few hours, only to have Safari crash and you lose them all? (BTW, usually when this happens, your History list gets truncated.)
Now with Saft, when you restart Safari, it reminds you that the app had crashed, and it recovers your opened tabs. NICE.

The iTunes-like searching through bookmarks and history is wonderful and should be a feature Apple includes in Safari proper.

The best thing about Saft is that it elegantly integrates with Safari. No ugly menu add-ons or extra apps to run. It just makes Safari better. You forget that it's there. You just miss it when it's gone.

I was toying with the idea of making Firefox (and all of it's great extensions) my main browser. Even OmniWeb, since it's workspaces looked intriguing. But Saft kept me firmly in the Safari camp. The developer has pretty much filled in all the Safari gaps that I could think of.
