NuKit - a few tweaks on every day in one program

Any operating system, including such successful to Mac OS, requires improvements and customization for a particular person and his work. The reasons for this are many, old habits traitors windows, up to the decision by a computer very specific tasks. Sure, most of the users, these changes will not be necessary, but if the day-to-day work meets the same "snag" it must be corrected. To fix minor troubles between the user and the operating system is NuKit application.

With NuKit can get several useful features to improve daily work: starting with a keyboard shortcut application, the substitution function on the Zoom button windows-like behavior, plus a few old features to configure the interface, gone with the arrival of Snow Leopard, and other useful tweaks as detailed in the review programs.

Launcher
According to the developers NuKit, Spotlight too slow to run applications. With this statement, you can not agree, but you must bear in mind that unlike many of them has been created its own launcher, which was very fast and convenient. In addition to running applications launcher panel is able to execute commands to open web sites and evaluate expressions with rational numbers, functions, and the different number systems.

Keyboard shortcuts
Computer working tool assumes daily use five to ten applications. Logically hang these applets to shortcut keys and in the process necessarily required to run a single motion, e.g. ⌥⇧M to start switching on or Mail. Appeal to the launcher reduced several times, it will be noticeable and small time savings that within a month will result in a few tens of minutes to spare.

window Mover
Another great feature that I did not mention in the header post. With modifiers (^, ⌥, ⇧, ⌘) You can change the size and position of the window over which the cursor is located. This possibility is especially useful for owners of MacBook, there is support for two-and trehpaltsevy gestures.

Real Zoom
Switchers and not only useful tweak buttons Zoom, the window will actually be set to full screen. Just undergo modification button "closing" application. Under the influence of NuKit closed is not only the active window, but the entire application as a whole.

Dock and Finder
Not everyone fell like glass 3D Dock, nostalgic personalities on flat surfaces and darkening the icons of hidden applications have to the article the Dock settings. Finder for the following options: Show Path Bar, the path in the title bar, the show hidden files, preventing shutdown upon detection of disconnected devices.

Advantages and disadvantages
NuKit menu to configure Mac OS logical and equipped with a large amount of background information. In some sections of the embedded animation with a demonstration of how to use the change in the system. Stated functions work fully, no significant errors were noticed.

The first observation can be made at the installation. Mount the image, trying to move out of habit applet in your program, but in reality, the application must be installed by double-clicking. No explanation that introduces some error.

The second point relates appearance. Icon in the menu lacks detail, the impression that they had just been pulled out of Windows XP. in pink the style to some extent, it makes it clear that the program is intended for advanced blondes. But this is speculation which should not be treated seriously.

The app can be recommended to those who have recently switched to Mac and does not have time or energy to get used to the so-called "strange» Mac OS. Experienced makovody Most of the tweaks easily done in the terminal, and to implement other use of the free alternatives. If the layout of the program's features still enjoyed, it will not be superfluous to recall the price of 632 rubles. 14 kopecks. per license NuKit.
