@Brett The plugin repository I made was just a quick/rough 'test', the idea is to make a much more full proof version with descriptions like you get in Quicksilver itself.
We need to work on building this new repo, and adding information. If you want to start making e.g. a spreadsheet with a list of all the plugins, their version numbers, dates and descriptions that would be an awesome start! The 3rd party plugins have come from various sources - people emailing me stuff, and stuff that's already available as open source by Alcor. I guess tracking down and finding where everything's come from would be another good idea. ( https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Ah_3obKwBvxsdGxxSVIyVm93OG5waVgyMnloN1cwVnc&hl=en_GB&authkey=CM674r0O) I've installed a wiki at: http://qsapp.com/wiki for the exact idea of a place for everything to be stored. If you want to start editing that as well then go for it! * The plugins repo wouldn't be a replacement to Howard's manual of course, only the descriptions would be included. There would be plenty of links to the awesome manual though :) On 19 November 2010 14:25, Howard Melman <[email protected]> wrote: > That's why I wrote this manual: > http://mysite.verizon.net/hmelman/Quicksilver.pdf > Though it's current to B54 only. > > Howard > > On Nov 18, 2010, at 9:01 PM, Brett wrote: > > > Perhaps I'm missing something, but what would be great would be to > > have some sort of a more detailed description included in the plugins > > repository.
