<p>The menu only shows for a split second, so you have to use keyboard shortcuts. If you haven&#8217;t set any shortcuts for Inquisitor you can do so by editing your Safari preference file (~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist) and looking for keys starting with &#8220;kInquisitor&#8221;. Below is a partial view of my plist file for reference.</p>

<p>If you do not have the Property List Editor (part of Apple Developer Tools) you could try <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/plisteditpro/">PlistEdit Pro</a> (I have never used this) or just get down and dirty with the XML.</p>
<p>Remember not to use existing keyboard shortcuts to avoid conflicts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, first impressions: feels pretty snappy; tab placement was confusing for 2 minutes but now I really like it, though I agree it doesn&#8217;t make sense for the bookmarks bar to be within a tab; Top Sites is completely useless to me, but CoverFlow for history might come in handy once in a blue moon. Overall it seems like Google Chrome has made quite an impression.</p>
<p>Only one thing REALLY bugging me: keyboard shortcuts for the bookmarks bar is broken for popup bookmarklets.</p>
<p><strong>Ideal behaviour:</strong> you hit Cmd-1, and your first (non-folder) item on the bookmarks bar loads in the current window. If it is a JavaScript bookmarklet, it behaves exactly as it would if you&#8217;d clicked it, e.g. popup in a new, typically small window. This is not affected by Safari&#8217;s Block Pop-up Windows feature.</p>
<p>Safari 3 did exactly that.</p>
<p><strong>Safari 4:</strong> you hit Cmd-1, and because Cmd is the modifier for &#8220;new tab&#8221;, your small bookmarklet opens in a new tab in your large window.</p>
<p>Cmd-<number> for a regular URL bookmark obviously doesn&#8217;t open it in a new tab, because the Cmd is part of the shortcut and not the new tab modifier. </p>
<p>I guess nobody on the Safari team uses both popup bookmarklets <em>and</em> shortcut keys for the bookmarks bar.</p>
<p>Update: I think <a href="http://manton.org/2009/02/defending.html">Manton Reece</a> is spot on, regardless of Apple&#8217;s intentions (emphasis mine): </p>
<blockquote><p>In the last 4 years the problem has only gotten worse. Developers are rolling their own tab solutions and there is no consistent behavior or keyboard shortcuts that I have seen. Worse, coding fully-featured tabs with the ability to drag windows in and out of a tab group is very difficult, and most apps don&#8217;t go that far.</p>
<p>The Safari 4 tabs are conceptually the right way to go. <strong>It&#8217;s not &#8220;tabs&#8221; at all. Instead, think of it as an efficient way to dock multiple windows together</strong>.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Holy cow <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0450314/">Punisher: War Zone</a> was bad. At least The Spirit had some style, albeit in a lame not-really-Sin-City kinda way. Punisher was just painful to watch. Horrible acting and dialogue all around, completely nonsensical plot with more gaps and errors than bullet-holes. No idea what the jerkwads over <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0450314/usercomments">here</a> are smoking.</p>
<p>Ray Stevenson has as much enthusiasm for the role as Homer Simpson might have for a stick of celery. He is not &#8220;shredding through his opposition&#8221; &#8212; he is a man in a body vest who does not get hit by Hollywood bullets, gives absolutely no impression of strength or aggression or general deadliness, shows no sign of tactical intelligence or military training or skill in armed or unarmed combat, and has as many facial expressions as a potato.</p>
<p>Peter Hartlaub of the San Francisco Chronicle, was it really &#8220;one of the best action packed and violent films [you've] ever seen in [your] life&#8221;? Have you not watched Rambo? Or Shoot &#8216;Em Up? Or even any one Steven Seagal flick?</p>
<p>This is the fourth new movie I&#8217;ve watched this year.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s the fourth shitty movie I&#8217;ve watched this year.</p>

They played a couple tracks off the newish EP too &#8212; I was all &#8220;is this the one where they shout &#8216;fuck the war&#8217;&#8221; and Mak was like &#8220;what&#8221; I think more because he couldn&#8217;t hear me than because he didn&#8217;t know the song and then Torq said fuck the war and it was a bit anti-climatic</p>
<p>Me and C were stopped by this usher halfway down the steps and she (the usher) kept lurking in the shadows so we had to wait a bit and then make a dash for the front. I guess I feel a bit guilty but hey if you&#8217;re going to pay a hundred plus and content yourself with sitting down halfway back in the hall then it&#8217;s your loss (I couldn&#8217;t figure out how to use the word &#8220;languid&#8221; in this sentence).</p>

<p>I&#8217;ve always felt my relationship with metal to be something of an uncomfortable truce. I love the batshit crazy riffs &#8212; the strings on the Sonata Arctica cover are surprisingly catchy &#8212; but the whole sound tends to be formulaic and overdone.</p>
<p>Overture is going to be wizard though.</p>
<p>edit: the set was changed and cut down considerably &#8212; in the end we only played Overture 1928, Porcupine Tree&#8217;s Blackest Eyes (had a lot of fun with the ambient synth pads for my solo), and (don&#8217;t ask me why) Nickelback&#8217;s Hero.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Best countdown ever, watching <a href="http://amtakescontrol.livejournal.com/8571.html">ATC</a> with C.</p>
<p>Obligatory introspective later &#8212; Russ is supposed to pick me up for GUITARRRRRR HERO</p>
<p>HULLO 2009 HERE&#8217;S TO NOT JACKING ME BIG TIME</p>
<p>edit: listening to the album and 4207 gets worse with every new recording :&lt; the earliest one I stole off myspace is pure wizard (was it on their self-titled?), then there&#8217;s one which I labelled as album but it sounds more than just a different mix &#8212; and it has the now quintessential one-two breakdown which I dare say was the tipping point where I fell in love with their sound, and in that tiny, tiny space where the guitars suddenly disappear and everyone cries out I can&#8217;t remember who I am or what we&#8217;re shouting for but it feels like everything is going to be alright &#8211;</p>
<p>and now this one just sounds like they were trying too hard to get the song &#8220;right&#8221; and forgot to kick ass.</p>
<p>where is russy poo</p>
