Hello everyone,

I have this problem with Spotlight, it won't wait until I've stopped
typing before it starts searching. One way to overcome this would be
to type my search string somewhere else, copy it, invoke the Spotlight
search field and then paste it there. This of course is not practical
at all.

I was wondering if there is a way to use QS instead. I picture
something like this:
1. Invoke QS with a trigger to bring it in "Send this directly to
Spotlight when I press enter" mode
2. Type what you want
3. Press enter (just enter, no tab, no nothing)
4. Spotlight is invoked with the search string already pasted in the
search field

I know I can use the Spotlight plugin to sort of get this
functionality, but I haven't found a way to use it with a trigger so
that it would only require one key press to bring it up. Also, I don't
know if the Spotlight plugin is able to use the Spotlight menu, I can
only make it use a Finder window.

Has anyone found a way around this?
