Runner's High (Desktop 18)
First and foremost, I can now officially announce the release of Enigma 1.1 to the Lifehacking community. :)
As I described in the preview, I've added:
-RSS reader.
-Gmail notifier.
- System/battery graphics using ecqlipse 2 icons.
- Tray clock replacement.
- Quick-edit button for Notes.
- Application launcher. Useless to anyone with Launchy or StandaloneStack, but it's pretty, and way too much fun to play with. (You can see what it looks like in the deviantArt screenshot.)
- Assorted doodads and revisions.
- Fixed the Location bug plaguing Enigma and HUD.Vision.
As for this shot, it's nothing dramatically different from my Leaf, so I'll redirect you there for all software/themes. My new toy of the week is the aforementioned StandaloneStack, courtesy of skarhead187. I loves them, precious. Right now, I've added a bunch of them to my Launchy directory, but my real plan is to assign some keyboard shortcuts to them using Authotkey - I'm thinking Win+F1, F2, etc. The creators of Enso once mentioned that the one shortcoming of active-input app launchers like Launchy, Executor and Enso is that you can't effectively browse your options. The Start Menu, quite frankly, is an effective tool for that, and I still use it for that purpose regularly. But I think a method using StandaloneStack may eliminate even that need. I already categorize the programs in my start menu (Accessories, Programs, Media, etc.), so it's a natural progression to assign a hotkey/stack combo to each one.
And after that? They're shortcuts. You can do anything with shortcuts and batch files. You can nest them, for heaven's sake! You could design an interface that used literally nothing but these stacks.
Sadly, classes are starting up again, and I have some other non-Desktop-y projects to work on, so God knows when I'll get to that.
