Create special single-click-to-launch Dock folders
I have a current license for DragThing, but honestly haven't used it in a very long time. This is not indicative of James' work. I think DragThing is an excellent program. My computer habits have changed considerably and I have become more basic in some ways. I now cannot live without a small app called Namely. With a key combination you can begin typing the name of the application you want. Three letters is usually enough to get the application you want as auto-complete kicks in, then hitting the Return key has your application open. The newest version even "learns" from what you've typed to launch your application even faster.

Is this not exactly how Spotlight works? I hit Command-Space to bring up Spotlight, type a few letters of the App I want to launch, and Spotlight serves it up as the Top Hit (based on my usage habits). I hit Command-Return (or Down Arrow and Return) and voila!

Yes this is pretty much exactly what Spotlight does, except that it only works with applications and any Automations one may have made. Also, like Spotlight, one can tell it what directories NOT to look in. I find Namely faster because there are fewer steps involved and it only has to look for certain types of files. |
