As per the discussion in #9, this is a quick refresh of the UI.

This PR is a WIP, so feedback is appreciated. It's also missing some spacing, separators, icons and font treatments.

It's looking good! I'd definitely add the item separator though.

Also, I've also been thinking that it could look interesting to toy around a bit with NSVisualEffectView, I know it wouldn't look exactly like Open Quickly but having a subtle blurred modern look could look pretty interesting. What do you think?

Thanks — yes, it definitely needs the separator, and something isn't sitting right with the line heights of the text.

There's an NSVisualEffectView backing the entire view already:

It could use some actual design love, but this feels good in use 😄

Loving it!
Two things:

  1. Was thinking that it could be cool to surround the hint text with some kind of mask (a bit like markdown backticks to make it a bit more obvious that it's a shortcut/macro)

  2. Perhaps we should also consider larger titles/summaries and should just support variable height cells to accommodate a couple of lines of text each -- size consistency is good but pointless if people can't actually read what's in there :) What do you think?

I'm getting the feature set for a 0.3 release ready, got a couple of things I want to work on but am aiming for later this week.

How's the UI work going?

Haven't had much time tonight, but the dynamic heights are already in there (just need to disable the single line mode on the text field in the XIB). I agree with your suggestion about some kind of outline around the key/snippet trigger text.

Hopefully I'll have some time tonight to finish that up.
