Thank you for pointing out cmd+?, I had no idea it would search through menu items. That will relieve the frustrations that I have with OSX menus a little.
Could you provide an example of what you use services and Automator for? I've seen the services menu and I think I read somewhere that it works with the clipboard, but I have no idea what I can use it for.
- archagon 12y agoI think the one I use most of all is "New Terminal At Folder", since it means I don't have to type in my current Finder directory in cd. Here's another example. I recently wrote an Automator Service to copy selected file/folder paths to my clipboard. Super useful for programming and it only took me half an hour without knowing any AppleScript. http://cl.ly/1a3s3g1u2Q2w http://cl.ly/1a3s3g1u2Q2w By the way, the contents of the Services menu changes depending on the type of data you've selected. If you want to see a full list, go to System Preferences — Keyboard — Shortcuts — Services. Lots of stuff to choose from!
