    As promised here's the first mini-review of a favorite utility: OpenMenu X: I've been looking for OpenMenuX practically as long as I've been using OS X. I love contextual menus; right-clicking (or control-clicking for purists) to access an appropriate menu just seems so right to me. Since switching to an Intel Mac, however, many of my favorite contextual menu item programs no longer work (above all QuickImage CM, not updated since 2004). But even beyond these (mostly Finder) plugins, I've always wanted to be able to customize my contextual menus in all programs with the things that I want.With OpenMenuX this is now possible. It installs as a Preference Pane, and once installed it allows you to define a custom contextual menu that will appear any time you right click in practically any application.
