Hybrid Application Manager
Open Source October 17th, 2003
AppRocket seems to be a hybrid application manager with “intelligent search” that appears to be based on LaunchBar for Mac OS X. (link via Les Orchard)
“AppRocket uses a very special search algorithm to zip through thousands of items and only show you that which is most relevant.”
Just a note however, AppRocket requires .Net 1.1.

i use launch bar on my TiBook. it’s very handy. i’d like to customize the index and map language to explicit items (type o-i-t = open iTunes) and i haven’t figured out how. although, i haven’t purchased the full version either. maybe that’s the key..?!? regardless, it’s a handy tool for keyboard navigation that i suspect will find it’s way into future versions of the MacOS.
