I remember that feeling. For a time, when I wanted to learn more, no matter what I was about to do I tried to remember to bring up Quicksilver first, then think about how I could do it after. But that was 6+ years ago. I don’t think about it any more. :-) > And then once one starts investigating, the program gets challenging very > quickly.

With a little bit of use, it’ll learn which ones matter to you and show those first. A setting I’ve used for a loooong time that gives me peace of mind is “Show other results: Never”. That prevents the list of results from appearing unless you start skimming it with the arrow keys. Since the thing I want is almost always there with a little typing, I don’t need to see the rest. You can probably live without any of the “(Catalog)” stuff in your catalog (Preferences → Catalog → Quicksilver → Quicksilver Catalog Entries). The main benefit to having them is that you can tell them to rescan, but that shouldn’t be a common task and there are other ways to do it. -- Rob McBroom <http://www.skurfer.com/> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Quicksilver group.
