Useful Services
Authored by: Enkerli on Feb 01, '05 04:19:06AM

Interestingly enough, I was coming to the site to look for info on Services. Was installing Devon's Services Pack (including WordService).

Have been using WordService for a long time and it has proved extremely useful. In fact, Services are among the coolest features in Mac OS X, IMHO. The word count/statistics, though not live, can be a huge help. And Nisus Thesaurus provides a service for lookup or replace. Really neat. Not to mention CalcService, also part of DevonTech's Services Pack: select an equation, and the service solves it directly.
Other apps offer Services, including some reference management software (BibDesk, Endnote), some with auto-completion!

Is there a good repository for Services? Or just a guide to OSX Services in general?

Thanks!
