But for what this is of use on my Mac?
It is about a pitcher of application based on technology Spotlight includes in Mac OS X. This, it is complicated version. To make simpler, quicksilver a practically invisible application for the user is. She apparait only by combining keys " CTRL+espace " and allows to achieve her applications, to throw it otherwise than with the traditional way Finder> Applications> monapplication.app Pour faire plus simple, quicksilver est une application quasiment invisible pour l’utilisateur. Elle n’apparait qu’en combinant les touches “CTRL+espace” et permet d’accéder à ses applications, de les lancer autrement qu’avec le traditionnel chemin Finder>Applications>monapplication.app
With this combination of keys a window of this style appears:
And by typing first 3-4 letters of application which I want to throw (here a-d-i because I wanted to throw Adium) it appears then the icone of desired application, and elements used récements introducing these letters (here two files and an utility of shape midday):
How it is included?
As you see him on captures above, when Quicksilver is not invisible, he is perfectly included into all environement Mac, with more a possibility of using available skins on the site of the editor.

Based on technologies native of Mac BONE (Spotlight and Quartz between other one), Quicksilver is the example of third integration of application in system of Apple.
What misses him you him?
He does not miss thing to him big application makes what is asked for him to make and well. There are embellishments, no advertising, no bets in days untimely It is so much possible to customise application and the paufiner the integration, which is finished thinking that it is inherent in the system. It is necessary to note that application is there beta since its online bet She answers perfectly however pressures of working and is of an exemplary reactivity.

In case this could serve in user in lack of RAM there is an application a little lighter than Quicksilver and who takes care only of throwing of applications: Namely.
Token it is sure it is not also complete as Quicksilver but if purpose is only of throwing of softs then this can be interesting to test.
