I've been using Qwiki since the early betas, and it has become my go-to application for Wikipedia! I look forward to the next releases!

Also used Qwiki for some time now. It's a really nice little menu bar application for mac. From what I could gather from communicating with the maker, @chrishannah clearly makes an effort to respond to feedback and to implement sensible changes that people wish for as fast as possible.

I'm disappointed in myself for not checking this out sooner when you were running the beta, I picked up a copy of it today and am loving it so far 😊 as others have said, add global hotkey support. It would also be really neat if you could implement support for url schemes (http://www.brianjcoleman.com/tut...). That would open it up to a world of possibilities as it could then be integrated into other apps like alfred. If I could type "qw article name" in alfred and it open up search results in Qwiki, it would pretty much be a home run for me.

You can use Spotlight and Dictionary for this as well on a Mac, right?

It's great but lack of keyboard shortcuts.

@adityadaniel Thanks, that's definitely something that I plan to add in the next update. You can at the minute use the keyboard (slightly) - After typing something in the search box, press tab and then you can use the up and down arrows to navigate the results, and then you can select one with enter. But I admit this doesn't seem very intuitive, and will be reworked and improved for the next release!

@chrishannah thank you! I think of keyboard shortcut to activate QWiki. Up Down arrow keyboard for navigate in search result and Command+C to copy link. That would speed up a lot. Keep up the great work, Chris!

I usually search "wiki trigonometry" on Spotlight, and enter for quick wikipedia searches.
