SiteLauncher Description

A Firefox add-on that allows you to easily launch your favorite websites. SiteLauncher is an add-on for Firefox that gives you a super-quick way to to open your favorite websites using only your keyboard. One special hotkey brings up the "Launcher" (see image), followed by a unique key to launch a site.Designed to be especially useful for quickly opening Web sites you use often throughout the day. For example, many people would probably want to add Google, Gmail, Facebook, and Twitter to SiteLauncher--what sites to include is entirely up to you.Because SiteLauncher appears on demand, it's also useful for minimizing toolbar clutter.The Launcher default hotkey for Mac users is Ctrl+Alt. Here are some key features of "SiteLauncher": · Because each site key is displayed in the Launcher, you don't have to memorize a bunch of key combinations to have shortcuts to loads of sites, only one hotkey. · Default hotkey is customizable, in case you need it for something else. · Add as many sites to SiteLauncher as you want. · Just about any character key can be associated with a site, you're not limited to just a-z, 0-9. · Because you press the hotkey first, no matter what key you assign to each site, you can be sure you will not cause conflict with any of Firefox's built-in shortcuts. · Highly customizable appearance - change colors, text size, spacing, column size, etc. · Optional visual effects - transparency, rounded corners, and gradients. · You can have your site shortcuts automatically arranged or manually arranged in the order you want them to appear inside the Launcher. · Set Launcher to open sites in current or new tab. · Optionally, set Launcher to appear on startup instead of your homepage. Requirements: · Firefox 2.0 – 3.2a1pre What's New in This Release: · Optional Mouse Support–lots of people asked for this, how could we say no? Entirely optional so it won't get in the way of those that wish to stick to pure keyboard navigation. · Multi URL shortcuts–assign one key to open multiple URLs. To use this feature enter the sites you wish to open together separated by the | character. Example: dilbert.com|wetherobots.com|xkcd.com. · Assign custom icons to bookmarklets–a problem with bookmarklets (special javascript links) is they normally only have generic icons, in SiteLauncher you can now associate a site's 'favicon' with each bookmarklet to help distinguish them. · New menu access via Launcher–you can now access SiteLauncher's menu from the Launcher as an alternative to the Menubar. To do this just hit Tab when the Launcher is showing. · Case-sensitive shortcuts–SiteLauncher will now distinguish between upper and lower case keys. In the event that only a upper or lower case version of a key is set, it will fallback to case-insensitive mode. · More customization options–including option to disable icon reflections, and option to remove the 'Site Launcher' item from the Menubar. · Many other tweaks–many small improvements; several bug-fixes; lots of code refactoring.
