Lion Support is Coming

Thursday, December 1st, 2011

I’ve been working on a completely rewritten PathSnagger. It is now an application, instead of a service/preference pane, which should make the installation a lot easier for everyone. It works on Lion, and should also work in Snow Leopard, but I haven’t been able to test that yet. The application advertises its own service, so you will still get a “Snag Path” option in your Finder’s contextual menu (sometimes it will be in the Services submenu.)

The new version is much more user definable than the previous version. Once you set up your rules, you can specify exactly how you want the path to be snagged each time you invoke the service.

It also contains Growl support, and will pop up a Growl notification displaying the path that was copied to the clipboard.

I’m very happy with this one, and hope you will be as well! This next release will be deployed via the Mac App Store.

If anyone is interested in beta testing this version, please join the mailing list mentioned in the previous post.

PathSnagger 2.0b1 just went out to testers. Whoo hoo!

PathSnagger 1.1b5 Available

Thursday, November 3rd, 2005

New in 1.1b5:

  • “Use Quotes” was moved into the “Unix Paths” group as it doesn’t make sense for HFS.
  • “Escape Spaces” was added as an optional checkbox. This should satisfy both Terminal and “Go to Folder…” users.
