The Merlin Show: Quicksilver proxies for application menus
008: HOWTO: Quicksilver: Application Menus | The Merlin Show
Many of the most diehard Quicksilver fans don’t know “proxy objects” even exist. Proxies are a sexy way to build actions and triggers around abstract QS items such as “Current Application,” “Finder Selection,” “Album Now Playing,” and even meta-stuff like “Last Command” and “Quicksilver Selection.”
By making a trigger to “Show Menu Items” in the “Current Application,” you can get Quicksilver-based access to almost any pull-down menu in a given OS X app. In today’s demo, I show you how to bring this fast access to any of the bajillion drop-down menu items in Macromates’ Textmate.
