ICeCoffEE lets you command-click on URLs in Cocoa applications to launch them. It is modeled after ICeTEe, for classic Mac OS, which provided the same functionality in many Macintosh applications by patching TextEdit.
Command-click anywhere in a Cocoa application's text area to open the URL at that point. Some Cocoa applications that come with Mac OS X include Stickies, TextEdit, Mail, Safari and Network Utility.
Control-click (or if you have a multi-button mouse, click with the right button) on a text area, and notice a "Services" menu at the bottom. This menu works the same as the Services menu in the menu bar. You can choose to remove unwanted services from this menu.
Version 1.5b3:
- no longer require selected text before ⌘-clicking in WebKit (Safari, Mail, etc.)
- handle clicking on hyperlinks in text (ICeCoffEE will use the target of the link rather than its text). In WebKit, this only works for editable text to avoid usurping ⌘-clicking for "open in new window/tab", etc.
- add contextual services in PDFs in Safari, Preview, or anything else that uses PDFKit (Skim, TeXShop, etc.)
- add “Copy Link” to ⌥⌘-click menu
- hide insertion point when blinking text
- highlight menu items in the Select Services sheet as if they were actual menu items
- save size of Select Services sheet
- display service keyboard equivalents set via the Keyboard & Mouse System Preferences, or programmatically via NSUserKeyEquivalents (LaunchBar does this automatically)
- on Tiger, don't display the above custom keyboard equivalents in contextual menus
- fix -43 error when helper apps disappear after you've brought up the ⌥⌘-click menu
- handle applications that dynamically load WebKit and/or PDFKit
- properly parse more parenthesized URLs and IPv6 addresses
- correctly display the state of "Require ⌥ to drop text in same window" preference
- works on Mac OS X 10.4.11 as well as 10.5.x
Mac OS X 10.4.11 or later.

F451 A great timesaver! Glad to see it updated, and I have never had an issue with APE, Unsanity, or this developer. (Version 1.5b3) |

JIMW This was one of my favorite and highly recommended utilities. And while I appreciate the developer updating it for Leopard, unfortunately it still uses APE (Application Enhancer). I state this only because APE has a history of interfering with some Apps and from what I have been told by other developers, it does not follow all of Apple Development Guidelines. As such it can become a source of instability with some Applications. In particular MacSpeech Dictate 'chokes' on it. So given the choice between Dictate and IceCoffEE, my nod goes to Dictate. Hopefully the developer will find a way to divorce it from APE in the future, so I can reinstall and use a utility I really enjoy using and that was a real timesaver for me. (Version 1.5b3) |

APIKOROS The author is correct, and I apologize! ICeCoffEE was NOT causing the panics. After reading the author's reply to my last post, I reinstalled ICeCoffEE and it's working as it should. (Now if only we could delete unwanted services provided by Apple's apps!) (Version 1.5b1) |
