I downloaded the binary - it worked without any problems on my 10.1 system.
Here are the initial results of trying it with several different apps:
None of the Carbon apps I tried - IE, BBEdit, or Mozilla - supported it, which is pretty much what I expected. Support for system services comes for free in Cocoa, but Carbon programmers have work at it - so it's not very surprising that many Carbon apps don't work well with them.
I had much better luck with Cocoa apps - TextEdit, Stickies, and ShuX all work fine. ShuX was especially fun to play with - the Perl docs have quite a bit of code in them, and the code evaluates in-place.
It works in Mail.app too, but the cmd-shift-e and cmd-shift-r key combinations appear to have already been taken by something else in that app, so I had to use it from the menu.
Wonderful work - I'm looking forward to playing with it more.
