Thanks
Had both those options checked - unchecked the first, nothing seems to
have changed.
Still have the major problem of only QS only offering to show my
selected text as 'Large Text' rather than running a search on it.

In the Quicksilver tab of the Triggers pane, there should be just two
triggers: one is "Command Window in Text Mode", the other is "Command
Window with Selection". You want to check the latter, then you can
map the key combination to whatever you want. I personally use Ctrl-
Option-Space because that seems to not collide with any other
application's hotkeys, and it's close enough to Option-Space (my
preferred QS hotkey) that I can remember it. I haven't had the
problem with having only the "Large Text" option. Hope that helps.

Thanks to you and Howard - nearly works!
Couple of problems:
1) When invoking QS using Cmd-ESc, QS only gives me one option:
'large
text'. It doesn't appear to search for the text like normal. Which
means it's pretty useless for what I need!
2) The specific app I want to use this in Things (at GTD app), seems
to respond the Cmd-Esc as if it's just Esc, and QS isn't invoked.
Other apps seem to be ok.

Make sure "Pull selection from front application instead of
Finder" is
selected in the Extras section of QS's Preferences, then use ⌘-
Esc.
Note that in order to avoid conflicts with Front Row using ⌘-
Esc, you
may need to change ⌘-Esc to some other key in QS's preferences, or
else change Front Row's key command to something else using the OS
X's
Keyboard and Mouse system preference panel.

I want to select text to invoke QS. Eg, I select the text, "jim",
hit
a specific key combo, and voila, QS is invoked, using that text.
Is this possible?
