Product Description:

When OS X 10.5 (Leopard) changed the way that folders are represented in the Dock, I lost a handy start menu made by dragging the Applications folder to the end of the dock. AppMenuBoy is a small Cocoa application that creates a hierarchical menu, in the dock, and when it is the frontmost app, in the menu bar, of your apps. It only shows apps. If a folder has a single app, it hoists the app up, so no subfolders of exactly one app.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

Mac OS X 10.5 Intel
Mac OS X 10.5 PPC

Additional Requirements:

10.5

App really fills a gap, albeit being slow to start - Version: 1.0, 7/27/2008 08:26AM PST

This application really fills a gap for those who use more than the handful of applications which fit into the dock. Excellent piece of work. I greatly enjoy it. Now ... that being said it's slow to start on both my G5 and Intel Duo machines and consequently slows down the other apps who start. I wouldn't be surprised if this is because the app scan the application folder at start-up and that this method takes a long time. It would be great to have a solution which pulls the information from system profiler or similar.

I LIKE IT! Wondered if something like this existed or not, then after a little searching on Google turned up this application. Saves me the effort of opening FINDER, Selecting Applications, Then perusing through folders & sub-folders hunting for what I want to start. KUDOS on a well-done program!

This is very useful by not displaying all of the extra files that are in my application folder.

Thanks David!
