Goddammit - QuickSilver is a great piece of software ;-) And it’s icon looks just like the Marathon icon (http://www.bungie.com/products/trilogy/trilogy.htm).

Also, found a great little tutorial via Todd Dominey -

Never tried Quicksilver but I have tried Launchbar, didn’t like it one bit. However, I do use Butler. Superb app and getting better all the time.

Oh my, Quicksilver completely rocks. I particularly like the clipboard history feature. And iTunes Browsing. And so on...

Objective Development have released a new beta of LaunchBar 4. We are truly spoiled to have two great apps for the Mac!
