WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.0b23:
- Minutes after we released build 22, Google changed the html of their suggestion source (Just our luck). As much as we try to publish no more than one build a month, this is a good enough reason to do another release.
- Fixed - Broken Google Search Suggestion
REQUIREMENTS
- Mac OS X 10.5 or later.
- Safari 3.0.4 (4525.18) or later.

OSP I simply love Glims. It turns Safari into a better Mac experience.

OLLIE_ Brilliant app, the , and . tab swap feature saves me so much time. I would love if it could update itself with less work, like Cyberduck does for example, rather than having to visit this site, download, reinstall etc.

JROX One of the most useful apps that tie into Safari IMO. I use it all the time, on all my Macs, and the "undo close tab" feature is very useful. Kudos to the developers and keep the ball rolling!

FRANKOF I like Glims ever since I use it. First, for the features it implements, second for the possibility to leave behind Saft and its greedy, arrogant and unresponsive developer. Having said this, I would like to point put a bug - that is downloading into dated folders. For many downloads (such as pdfs shown in Safari, and downloaded by clicking the "download" button) this does not work, the files simply do not go into this folder. Anyway, great work guy! Thanks a lot!

CRUNCHIE FEATURE REQUEST - can you please reinstate the blue loading bar in Safari's address bar that Safari 4 took away? I hate the spinning circle and I would love to see the blue progress bar come back. Thank you.

ORION MK. V A bevy of features for zero buckaroonies and most of the time stable -- depends on the build of Safari. Though they exist in a few other Safari plugs, dated downloads, full/max screen viewing and search engine enhancements are my favs.

PROGRAMHAPPY Developer, I have a HUGE feature request that I think will be quite helpful to many users. There is (was) an add-on called "Twicetab" (see "Twicetab 1.3.1.1" here at macupdate), but it doesn't work on Safari 4. One of the optional features of TwiceTab that I desperately miss is the ability to make a URL (or domain name) in my clipboard open in a new tab. For instance, if I copy the text "http://www.google.com" or "google.com" and then double-click on an empty space in the Bookmarks Bar, it will open the Google home page in that new tab. However, if there is no URL or domain name at the top of my clipboard, the double-click action in the Bookmarks Bar will perform the user's default preference (home page, blank window, etc.) for a new tab. Whadaya say, guys? Hook us up! Thanks in advance!

PROGRAMHAPPY TYPO: "Bookmarks Bar" should be "Tab Bar."

CLAUCLAU Actually it did install, but Glims preference panel is not showing, and it like it doesn't run at all.

CLAUCLAU I installed Macte toolbar, but I am kind of sure I removed everything, as some user on macupdate reported that macte installer sneaks a little bit anywhere on the computer. I also used the Glims unisntaller, I can't tell where the problem is although my humble long experience.

CLAUCLAU I actually Installed Click 2 Flash and Glims is ok. Probably Click2Flash fixed permissions after installation. Problem solved.

PUPO same here. Like nothing happened.

MACHANGOUT Problem fixed. Sorry for the confusion. In order to work on Snow Leopard, Glims has to be an OSAXen plugin, aka Script Addition, which behaves a little differently from Input Managers, we fixed the uninstaller accordingly. Also it would be nice if you could contact us through the report form on our site, we really would like to get feedback on our software, and know what you think we should improve for future versions (beside the uninstaller).
