Liquid

v33 is out today. It took a few weeks to fix the bugs, but it's here. "Improved AI settings interaction."

(Not another!) Added NOTE: Even the Liquid app itself isn't up-to-date regarding its own website! The OLD website has a security certificate that's years out-of-date. And yet, that's where the USER GUIDE for Liquid is located. That sucks! AND *sigh* the Support page is at the old website out-of-date website as well. That double sucks! But persist on and grab them both off the net and save them to your Mac for future reference. - -> RANT AHEAD: [Ever wonder if technology is WAY past the comprehension of average humans? No question! Yes it is! AND here we have very advanced software in Liquid, Author and Reader, and their developer can't even keep his security certificates up-to-date. Hopeless? All too!]

Added NOTE: Both Liquid and Author have a companion app called "Reader". It is not at the moment listed at MU. It's developer webpage is: https://www.augmentedtext.info/reader - - It is described as a "Fast & Minimalist PDF viewer with powerful controls." There are TWO versions. The FREE introductory version is "Reader | Basic". The FULL version is $2.

v32 is out. NOTE: The link above for the Developer website is INCORRECT and unsafe! It's security certificate is years out-of-date! Use THIS link: https://www.augmentedtext.info/liquid - - What's New: "Now includes OpenAI integration, enter your OpenAI API Key and you can now instantly ask questions to OpenAI via Liquid."

All of the Liquid apps are nothing short of remarkable! They should all be essential parts of the Mac OS.

Very usefull, but as mentioned earlier (in 2014), should be able to be invoked using a keyboard shortcut.

5 STARS WHEN IT CAN BE INVOKED USING A KEYBOARD COMMAND. First click needs to be done on the toolbar icon unfortunately. But then it gets really simple: you just type in your desired text request (a website, a translation etc), press enter, and then press another two letters depending on the desired search type (they're like internal key commands so they will not conflict with existing ones and they are already set up and are pretty obvious.. SI for Search IMDB, SG for Search Google, SI for Search Google Images, RW for Reference Wikipedia etc I have not memorized them all but over time should be no biggie). VERY USEFUL TO DO WEB SEARCHES FOR ME, MUCH FASTER THAN DOING IT THE BROWSER.

That's a really bad example in the screen shot. Here's how the conventional should read: 1. Right click on word 2. Select Look Up in Dictionary 3. Read Wikipedia or dictionary results 4 Click to dismiss
