Publisher's Description
From Google Mac Developer Playground:
When OS X 10.5 (Leopard) changed the way that folders are represented in the Dock, I lost a handy start menu made by dragging the Applications folder to the end of the dock. AppMenuBoy is a small Cocoa application that creates a hierarchical menu, in the dock, and when it is the frontmost app, in the menu bar, of your apps. It only shows apps. If a folder has a single app, it hoists the app up, so no subfolders of exactly one app.
What's new in this version:
- As the directories change, AppMenuBoy automatically tracks those changes.
- AppMenuBoy now uses the localized name of Apps and folders, not the hidden file name.
- AppMenuBoy now sorts its menu (since localization can change the order.)
- Now has a preference to skip folders with parenthesized names. Example: (OldStuff)

"App performs as expected. Straightforward."
Version: AppMenuBoy 1.0
Pros
Simple to use. No extra bells or whistles...just a clean, well-thought design for a basic function.
Cons
When right-clicking on the app in my Dock the applications shown only appear in List view. Would be nice if Fan or Grid were available also.
