Enso - Another FARR similar app, but not quite

(1/2) > >>

skajfes:
I just stumbled upon this launcher and i must admit that I like it. It is really different from anything I've seen before. I love the idea that it is displayed like OSD rather than a full app. And I can't decide if I love or hate the idea of Enso Quasimode. That is - it is active as long as you hold the modifier key.

Of course, it is not as nearly as powerfull as FARR but it has some interesting features. For example - the learn command. Basically, what it does is automating the creation of aliases. You open the app you wish to automate, or select text or something, and then activate Enso, type in learn <alias name> and you have a new alias.

Don't feel bad.  I just noticed it on Gizmo's site today.  I think I may have tried it awhile back because I vaguely remember rejecting some utility as soon as I found out they expected me to type while holding a key down(like a dead man's switch driving a train.)

The main interest is redirecting stuff to other apps without a bunch of hotkeys.  But even with "sticky" mode having to type "open with" is going to get old fast.  Guess I'll have to code my own redirector app(take selected text or clipboard and pass it as param to a bunch of apps user configurable as buttons in a GUI is how I see it now.)
