Previously, we looked at how to install custom QuickLook plugins, so we can preview more kinds of file types using this awesome feature of Mac OS X Leopard.
Today we will learn how to automate this process of copying a file into a certain location. So we only need to click the file, select the action and it’s installed.
In recent posts we talked about QuickLook, which allows you to instantly preview a file, without having to open it in an application.
However, there are file types, that can’t be previewed with the standard installation of Leopard.
Let’s find out how to add more plugins, so we can preview more file types (eg. compressed .zip files, flash video or even folders).
Long title, quick tip. Using the previous tutorial on SafariStand we configured Quick Search, a great tool which lets you search directly from the address bar in Safari.But that’s not all. Quick Search also live in the contextual menu.
As you might know, at Mac Kindergarten, Safari is the web browser of our choice. Beside its speed we like the look and feel of it.
Today we will look at a great, free plugin/extension called SafariStand. We will see, how two of its main features, make Safari even faster to use (so there is more time for browsing and less for typing). Tab thumbnails and Quick Searches. (more…)
Google has in recent years developed into the search engine. It’s built in into almost every major browser. Our favorite web browser here at Mac Kindergarten is Safari, which is great already by itself (and has this search box, too).
In the following, we will look at a freeware tool which will helps us to make this search box into an instant preview pane for Google search results and thus making Safari even better. Yeah!
