Commander

Commander is an awesome app that lets you run scripts right from your menu bar. If you've ever searched for apps that add cool features but couldn’t find the perfect one, this is a great alternative! With Commander, you can run both Shell and Python scripts, which opens up a ton of options if you're a bit familiar with coding.

Add More Functionality to Your Menu Bar

When you first launch Commander, you'll see some simple scripts already included. These let you hide or show desktop icons and even open a website! It's a neat way to get a feel for how the app works before diving into creating your own scripts.

Customizing Your Scripts

You didn’t download Commander just for those sample scripts, right? Go ahead and check out the settings to start adding your own. You can easily paste in new Shell or Python code or even open existing script files directly!

Make It Look Nice

After you add a new script, there's an option to give it its own icon. While this step isn't mandatory, adding icons really makes your menu look snazzy!

Categorize Your Scripts

If you're like me and enjoy keeping things organized, you'll love that you can create folders in Commander. This allows you to categorize different items easily! Plus, if you're not happy with where something is placed in the menu, you can move things around freely until it feels just right.

Refreshing Your Menu

Overall, Commander has all the essential features for adding and running your scripts smoothly. Just keep in mind that after adding a new script, you'll need to restart the app to see those changes in your menu. A quick refresh button would have been handy!

If you're ready to take your menu bar functionality up a notch with Commander, jump on board and start exploring all the possibilities today!
