Presenting Loro


Hey everyone, I've started work on a new application for OSX called Loro. Loro is a keyboard-centric file browser and launcher with a lot of eye-candy and functionality. Loro can also be used to search Google, Wikipedia, send emails and play music. Best of all, it's completely free.

The app is very much under development at the moment and is very much inspired by the work of Neil J. Patel
(http://njpatel.blogspot.com/index.html) and his mockups of an application he is planning to make for linux. I should make it clear that we are not working together.

Things currently implemented;
  • Auto complete
  • File browsing (not bugfree but getting there)
  • Simple actions, typing a web address or email address
  • Lots of eye candy, translucency and show/hide effects such as genie and fade

    Hope to release an alpha version soon.
