Utilities you can't live without?

foad

So maybe this subject might have come up before but I thought I might resurrect it. There are a lot of new users that have switched to OS X that don't know about the vast array of cool little and big things here and there that might make the OS X experience better.



What utilities and 3rd party applications do you guys use that make your OS X lives that much more pleasurable? If you also feel like it, mention next the application what it is used for so as to guide new users.



I personally love the following:



-DefaultFolder X (File Dialog Box Functionality)

-LiteSwitch X (Application Switcher)

-Fruitmenu (Customize OS X Menus)

-Firewalk (Firewall)

-Little Snitch (Application Firewall....alerts you when a application is trying to call hom)

-Extensis Suitcase (Font Management)

-Proteus (Chat)

-Transmit (FTP)

-XSee (Image Browser)



And lately I have been messing with PathFinder which is so far seeming pretty cool. Hope the FInder gets a upgrade in Pather.

iPulse -- elegant system info and a clock

Font Reserve -- font management

cocktail -- UNIX commands for the terminal-shy

flick justice

I use:

-Suitcase <fonts>

-Fire <chat, switched from Proteus>

-weatherpop <menu ba weather report>

-Fuzzy Clock <changes time from 3:15 to "quarter after three"

-Aquisition <peer to peer file sharing>

flick.
