5 stars
Version: Enso Launcher Build 3268
"Little Learning Curve, Huge Rewards!"
Pros: -Fast
-Easy to understand the basics quickly (may take time to master)
-Can teach the program to open things you want
-Can define words and use a thesaurus quickly right from your web browser!Cons: -Not sure yet how to "unlearn" notepad, pictures, music and some other commands.
Summary: I would give this 4 1/2 stars if I could. It took me a few minutes to learn this program and I still don't know everything that it can do but it is well worth my time to learn it! The program is fast and can speed up your productivity. Basically you use the caps key to, launch programs, check spelling, define words, and you can even teach it to open up files on command. I even have it opening up gmail by simply holding down CAPS and typing open gmail. To turn off your caps key simply hold down caps and type CAPS on or off. It is that simple. A wonderful program with tons of quick commands. I was using launchy simply to launch programs with out a start menu but this is much more powerful! If you simply want to launch programs go with launchy if you want to check spelling, define words, open up gmail, close programs, all with a few simple commands, give this program a try. The best part is teaching it to open up other files with a few simple commands. I have had a few issues... I tried to highlight a picture in picasa and use the open with command. It could not find the file. Not a huge deal, in picasa just locate on disk, then use the open command. Sadly this adds an extra step. Also as noted above, I can not easily unlearn some commands. I will have to dig and look that up better. All in all this program is well worth your time.
-May not work with all programs (see below)
-Takes away the caps key (some people may not like this).
