Executor is like Launchy & Wox. It does the same thing but it is easier to get to grips with and easy to set up for programmes, search queries and folders.<\/p>\n
I like it so much I’ve uninstalled Wox and used the Alt + Spacebar key for Executor instead. I’ll keep Launchy for the moment to explore and compare with it.<\/p>\n

I found the documentation gave examples so you could copy, test then alter to suit your own needs.<\/p>\n
The only thing I’m having a wee issue with is “cut”\/”paste” from a previous search. Sometimes it just pastes a blank, so you have to type it in by hand, other times it works fine (say initial search was in google and you now want to do one in YouTube).<\/p>\n
I’ve only started using it but feel I’ve got a lot further with it than I did with either Wox or Launchy as I can access my folders pretty quickly with short keys (eg Download is dl) so I think this will work in well with Quick Access Popup (QAP) too. There are extra parameters that I havent explored yet such as groups for single command, it seems similar to QAP. Also there are special\u00a0 commands such as:<\/p>\n
$P$<\/span> will in any keyword field (when editing the keyword) be replaced with the parameter part of the text input. Example input is “photoshop -nosplash” We have photoshop as a keyword and in any of the fields (command, parameter etc.) for the photoshop keyword $P$ will be replaced with “-nosplash”. Using $P1$ $P2$ $P3$<\/span> etc. you can target individual parameters.<\/em><\/p>\n So I’m looking forward to extending its use in the future.<\/p>\n I’m setting up my new PC and was installing Firefox add-ins that I’ve mentioned previously and came across another sidebar note, this time called Firefox Notes.<\/p>\n Its similar to Five Notes but you can add them all on one page and\u00a0 you can format your notes too:<\/p>\n I’ve got used to the handy access to make a note in the browser, this offers extra formatting and also you can add individual notes for each subject, whereas in Five Notes I just drop a lot of information in each tab. It may suit my process better. I’ll try and see.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Executor Executor is a multi purpose launcher sporting many optional customizable features and advanced setup.
