Safari Feature Wanted

April 22nd, 2003 by Hen

Oi, Mr Jobs:

I want to be able to select a url and drag it to the Dock, where I will drop it onto the Safari icon. This would then open a new Safari window to that Url.

Equally, this method would also be used for passing any parameter to a program by drag and drop, but Safari seem the best one.

I’d also like a feature removed. Could Safari stop using Finder to handle its file system browsing. It makes it impossible to make your home page a local directory full of documentation. It’s enough to make me turn on the local web server.

    Except Loadsamoney would have been a Windows user. One of the ones who complains about the Apple being over-priced then spends tons on PC components and Windows software that fail to integrate properly.

    Oh my, I almost sound like a convert :)

    Being a fellow limey living in the U.S., I haven’t heard anyone say or write “Oi” for quite a while! It reminds me of the Harry Enfield character from the pub “Oi - Jobs - NO!”

    I wasn’t thinking of Loadsamoney, I was thinking about the Self Righteous brothers. http://www.powerage.demon.co.uk/enfield/brothers.htm
