** NOTE: I don't use this anymore. After writing this, I realized FastScripts supports Aliases to Applications withing the `~/Library/Scripts` folder. This still might be useful to others, so feel free to fork away. **

Lauch App Scripts
=================

Automated creation of Application launching scripts for use with your favorite keyboard shortcut tool. This was written as a replacement for my Quicksilver addiction after upgrading to Snow Leopard.

The Rakefile was derived from [Grant Hollingworth's][3] [command-number-tab][4].

Install
-------

1. Change the APPLICATIONS constant at the top of the Rakefile
2. Compile and install the AppleScripts with `rake install`. The scripts will be installed under `~/Library/Scripts/Launch`
3. Set up keyboard shortcuts with [FastScripts][1] (or [Butler][2] or whatever)
