Easily open a URL from Safari in Firefox
Rob, what keyboard shortcut did you assign for Firefox? Was it Shift-Command-something? Those two modifiers are used for shortcuts in the Services Menu, and I find that those are assigned at runtime with a different mechanism than our accustomed method. Take a look at /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemUIServer.app/Contents/Info.plist and you'll see that shortcuts there are assigned without typing @$ (for ⇧⌘), only the letter. But the actual Services Menu shortcuts are always ⇧⌘Letter anyway. This seems to make them override assignment of the same keys to "normal" menu items.
I've been using Saft and was unhappy when one of the keys in its Safari > Block Images and Plugins > submenu conflicted with another shortcut I had assigned in my Services Menu. I was never able to find the Saft menu code or a .plist to modify (anyone?) But eventually I realized I could edit Safari's .plist to change the unwanted Saft shortcut to something else, and that lets my other Service shortcut work again. I'm betting that a shortcut that doesn't conflict with those Saft submenu items would work even with Saft running. |
