Service Scrubber

A new app that allows you to configure the Mac OS X Services menu, with nice little checkboxes and things.


 

Probably a better UI than the Service Manager prefpane (from the author of Quicksilver) that I'd relied on until now.


 

As I've mentioned in the past, the Services menu is apt to get cluttered, and because of the way it's implemented (each app says what it wants, with no central registry) fixing it involves messing with data within an application's bundle, which is not really great.


 

Still, Service Scrubber is a nicer way of doing it than fiddling with a text (or XML editor) yourself.


 

Who knows, one day Apple might notice this stuff and build a proper way of fixing it.


 

blech chuckles to himself.


 

I wonder why Service Scrubber needs 10.4, though. Surely it's not using CoreData or anything like that?
