Butler 4.1.2

What is Butler? A file launcher. You can access applications and any other kind of document by browsing fully customizable system-wide spring-loaded menus, pressing hot keys, clicking hot corners, or entering abbreviations. Butler will learn from your habits and remember what you want a certain abbreviation to do (e.g., enter "abo" to launch "Address Book").A bookmark manager.
Butler offers you a way to manage your bookmarks without depending on a certain browser. In contrary to a browsers bookmark collection, Butlers bookmarks are always accessible through its system-wide menus, hot keys, etc.
And youll certainly become addicted to accessing bookmarks by entering abbreviations. Butler also lets you access the bookmarks of every single browser there is for Mac OS X.Adding files or URLs from your browser to Butlers configuration is stunningly easy: Just drag them to the active screen corner (default: top left), see Butlers main window open, and drop your items somewhere whithin your configuration.A web search utility.
Butlers predecessor "Another Launcher" was the first application that let you search the web from the menu bar. But if your menu bar is too crowded for an input field, you can also use hot keys to pop up dedicated web search windows.
Butler supports a large number of search engines by default, but you are not restricted to those you can easily add your own search engines.
A clipboard extension.
Butler lets you access items you have previously stored in your clipboard, effectively turning your clipboard into a stack. You can also take a snapshot of your current clipboard and keep it for good. This feature is particularly useful for text snippets you need to enter on a regular basis.And so much more...
You can use Butler to move and copy files, control iTunes, access the system preferences, change the current user, and so on. But Butler really shines when it comes to customizing its behavior.
Is your menu bar too crowded? Use Butlers docket! Do you want a menu for each mounted volume? Do you want a menu to pop up when you press a certain hot key? Do you want all running applications in your menu bar? Or do you prefer doing things with your keyboard only? Whatever kind of interface you prefer, Butler is at your service.
Enhancements:
- Aliases are resolved less aggressively now. For instance, Butler wont try to mount remote volumes while updating its abbreviations cache anymore.
- Fixed a bug where Butlers abbreviations matching mechanism failed on file names that contained non-ASCII characters (a.k.a. the "Hägar" bug).
- Fixed a bug where duplicating containers via [option]-drag would cause Butler to reference the same contents twice.
- Butler starts up faster now.
- Available languages: English, French, German, Japanese -- potential localizers might want to have a look at Butler Helps "Localizations" section.
