WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.0b23:
- Minutes after we released build 22, Google changed the html of their suggestion source (Just our luck). As much as we try to publish no more than one build a month, this is a good enough reason to do another release.
- Fixed - Broken Google Search Suggestion
REQUIREMENTS
- Mac OS X 10.5 or later.
- Safari 3.0.4 (4525.18) or later.

2KTZ if you click on full screen it removes the menu bar ....and pops down when you move cursor to top of screen ...i really like the way it does that... the only problem is it disables you from using the dock.... if this can be worked out it would be great !!...hope the devs get note of this

GOLDYN CHYLD I don't think I would be using Safari if it weren't for Glims. The default Safari looks rather plain and unattractive, not to mention its lack of customizability. Enter Glims. Its vast array of options really compensates for essentially everything that default Safari fails to bring. Favicons. It's a must for me; I just like to have my websites display a neat favicon when they load. Customization of tabs. Open links in new tabs, open new tabs next to your current tab (left or right), or at the end of the tabs line (left or right), etc. It also offers an option to re-open all tabs in case your Safari quit unexpectedly. Accidentally closed a tab? No problem, the "Undo close tab" function will bring it back. I've only mentioned some of the features Glims offers, but there's so much more. The only thing I really miss is the option to create Bookmarks MENU separators. It would be awesome if they could add that in the near future. Bookmarks BAR separators, on the other hand, can be added though. Other than that, Glims is just great.

ACCOUNTCLOSED Running 10.6 on Intel Macbook Pro. The Tabs/Misc. "Don't restore tabs if no browser window is open on quit" doesn't work. On relaunch, the browser opens the last open window even if had been closed on quit.

OLLIE_ Brilliant app, the , and . tab swap feature saves me so much time. I would love if it could update itself with less work, like Cyberduck does for example, rather than having to visit this site, download, reinstall etc.

JROX One of the most useful apps that tie into Safari IMO. I use it all the time, on all my Macs, and the "undo close tab" feature is very useful. Kudos to the developers and keep the ball rolling!

FRANKOF I like Glims ever since I use it. First, for the features it implements, second for the possibility to leave behind Saft and its greedy, arrogant and unresponsive developer. Having said this, I would like to point put a bug - that is downloading into dated folders. For many downloads (such as pdfs shown in Safari, and downloaded by clicking the "download" button) this does not work, the files simply do not go into this folder. Anyway, great work guy! Thanks a lot!
