Quicksilver is no longer actively developed. However, issue number two is already addressed with the TextMate Ranker plugin. Install this in the plugins pane then change the string ranker option in the Handlers section of Preferences.
The description claims it "prefers word boundaries", but what this actually means is that it ranks names with initials that match before names with consecutive letters that match. It would, for instance, favor "Address Book" over "About these scripts…" Hope this helps. On May 30, 9:06 pm, Lantianer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I love Quicksilver. I use it all the time.
