AWSBrowser is the ACP Web Services browser. It lets you browse catalogues with web resources, test them, and export them to your Services menu where they can be further edited by AWSManager.
All you need to do to make it work is drag it to the location of your choosing and launch it. See below for details.
AWSBrowser is one of three modules in the ACP Web Services; the other two, AWS.service and AWSManager, are included in this package.
You will want 'services' catalogues containing the web resources you can put on your menu. Currently there are over one thousand available. They're also available in this package.
OS X version 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6; AWSBrowser takes takes very little disk space; there are no special memory requirements.
The AWSBrowser.app bundle (found in the same folder as the file you're currently reading) needs only to be dragged into the folder of your choosing. It's ready to run.
The basic run-through:
OS X services are based on interprocess data exchange. A 'clipboard' is used for this exchange. Almost all text OS X has the ability to work with OS X services.
As with all services involving text, the ACP Web Services assume some text is selected somewhere (and in focus). OS X determines what services are available and enables service menu items accordingly.
Try this as an experiment.
See? Almost anywhere you can select text you can get a service.
