A download link is up. I’ll be periodically uploading a compiled version of Quicksilver for those who’re keen on testing out the latest revisions.
The incompatibility with the File Tagging plugin hasn’t yet been worked out as the source isn’t available. If you’re using the download from B5X, be sure to disable this plugin until the conflict is resolved.
Note that some features (such as the “smart replace” pictured above) require setting the feature level to “developer”. You can do this by running the following two commands, then relaunching:
defaults write com.blacktree.Quicksilver "Cutting Edge Features" -bool yes
defaults write com.blacktree.Quicksilver "Feature Level" 3

Hmm… i get MacOS X 10.5.1 (fresh install) + QS from Ankur
install + chmod + defaults (2 times)
Install Finder plugin and set “Command window with selection” shortcut to Ctrl+Esc. Doesn’t work. QS opens with empty first pane and second is active… Cmd+G doesn’t work too…
Do i miss something?
And is there any way to use “Current Application -> Menu items” trigger?

thanks, works perfectly for me on 10.5.2.

Didn’t work here too.
I did remove ~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver to a save place. Then i did start Quicksilver (Ankur build) and then installed Plugin by Plugin again just to find which plugin causes troubles it seems like the “File tagging module” prevents QS from launching properly.
The PlugIn cant be installed from the online repository too.
Oh and…in case you wan’t your old catalog files back have a look inside catalog.plist

Just tried out the latest version and noticed that “Reveal” does not seem to work.
Can someone confirm this?

Mike, see instructions posted in a comment above about enabling the Finder plugin.

@Ankur, thank you very much.
Since this was working “out of the box” in the old Quicksilver I did not think that an extra plug-in was needed in this version. It is working perfectly now.

I’ve had the same problem as Mike for some time, and totally missed the comments about the Finder plugin, but even if I option-click on the “All Plugins” list it doesn’t show up. Any ideas?

This version is noticeably lighter and snappier than the previous B54, thanks Ankur. I’ve used for two days, but eventually couldn’t continue without access to ‘Set Tags’ action from file tagging module, which I use a lot.
Another issue, although minor, is that ‘Get Info’ action seems to do nothing.

@Alex
Install the Finder plugin and ‘Get Info’ will work.

Hey Mike, thanks.

I don’t know if this is a known issue, but since I started using QS with Leopard whenever I set up a keyboard trigger/hotkey it won’t display correctly in the list. CTRL-OPTION-CMD will show but not any additional “alphabetic” keys.
The triggers work fine, but it’s a bit annoying not to be able to see your specific trigger again if you happen to forget it.
Anyone else who has the same problem? Any solutions?
At last, huge thanks to for doing this Ankur!

Installed your build Ankur after Appzapping the old build as seydoggy said, however for some reason there are 4 plug-ins listed, which are all greyed out!

Alex, I’ll look into the problem with the triggers. This is the first I’ve heard of it.
John, the greyed-out plugins are preset ones. They’re kept “hidden” from the list of plugins unless you option-click a plugin category.
divulged by Ankur on March 26, 2008 7:22 pm | Permalink
Yes i understand that, what im saying is that they are the only plug-ins. There are no others

Tried a “refresh”? The plugins list is updated from the internet. The Console might have some additional info.

My bad, had to refresh the plugins, didn’t spot the little button down their

Ankur, thanks for doing this. This release seems much faster. I’m enjoying it. I’ve run into one issue that I’m hoping someone here can help me with. When I use the built-in trigger with proxy object to select multiple files it only selects one file. I’ve tried creating my own triggers and find the same issue. Any ideas of what I could be doing wrong?

I’m new to Quicksilver and don’t understand how to install the Finder plugin. If I option click the categories (plugins tab, All plugins), nothing new shows up.
Could someone take pity and walk me through it?
Using version b54 (3815) on OSX 10.4.11

Hmm… BezelHUD http://www.mygnu.com/julius/proj_bezel.html
won’t show a catalog list?
Edit: it actually says on the site it’s not compatible.

I’ve used appdelete and reinstalled 100% clean. I’m running Leopard.
Reveal in Finder and many other functions other than basic launching don’t seem to work… should they be? or should i try something else to fix this?
composed by efoiv on April 6, 2008 10:26 am | Permalink
Ankur, you are the MAN. The difference between B54 and B5X is incredible. Thank you SO much. If there is anything I can do pls let me know.

I too can confirm that Reveal doesn’t seem to be working (tested on 2 different Mac so far).
reasonded by Corentin on April 25, 2008 1:02 am | Permalink
Yes, but have you installed the Finder plugin?
recorded by Ankur on April 25, 2008 5:55 pm | Permalink
Reveal works for just fine for me.
published by seyDoggy on April 25, 2008 9:34 pm | Permalink
Ankur, you are right, it was the Finder plug-in. I deselected it then reselected it again and it immediately worked. Weird…

One little thing I don;t quite get though. The relationship with the regular branch of QS doesn’t seem clear. For instance, blacktree.com has the build number 3815 whereas this one says 3814. Is 3815 actually newer?? Does it incorporate any of the changes provided in 3814??

How the heck do I assign a trigger to “show shelf”?
expressed by wordup on April 27, 2008 2:08 pm | Permalink
Hey Ankur, I’m having trouble getting Show Menu Items to work in the new version. This was a problem with b54 as well. Any news on this feature? Thanks and let me know if there is anything I can help with.
