Favorite Mac OS X apps —11 February 2011

  • Google Chrome

  • Quicksilver - launcher, the first app I install always, and then some tweaking:

    • Disable spotlight
    • Automatically start Quicksilver on login (System Preferences / Accounts / Login items)
    • Map Quicksilver launcher to Cmd - Space
  • iTerm - terminal application, much better than the default terminal, for example it has tabs
  • MacVim
  • Bazaar - version control
  • VLC - media player
  • Calibre - kindle manager
  • DigitalColor Meter - (installed by default) a color picket tool, simple and perfect
  • Mac Ports (takes some time to install) - to install UNIX software
  • Freemind - mind mapping tool
  • picasamac
  • sshfs - mount remote filesystems over ssh
