Dash Command is actively developed by Mente Magica, a company with more than 10 years of experience producing high end windows program for cognitive science research, physical simulation, 3D animation, video production and psychological chronometrics.
Dash is the result of extensive research, passionate design, and a powerful desire to free users from every day frustrations. The road map for Dash is just at the beginning but it is backed up by years of expertise in cognitive psychology, mathematics and interface design. While our company is better known for it's propriatary physical algorithms and UIs, the Dash Command project benefits from all our strengths.
Dash is like a small intelligent robot that sits quietly inside your computer. You call it whenever you want to open an application, a file or document, send an email, play some music, perform a calculation, etc. And with just a couple keystrokes Dash correctly guesses what you want to do and does it for you.
You usually find your way around the PC using the mouse and clicking over and over. But sometimes to do a simple task you have to click on many buttons, menus and windows.
Wouldn't it be nice if you could just tell your computer: "Email John I received the files, thank you." to send email, or just "Word" to open up Microsoft Word?
Well now you can, with Dash!
And it's even better because you won't even have to type the whole thing, as Dash will autocomplete your commands, software names, email addresses, etc.
So how does it work exactly?
For example, say you want to open your web browser. First you call Dash by pressing a hotkey. Then you start typing Firefox (or whatever the name of your browser is).
By the time you have typed 1 or 2 letters, Dash knows what you want. Finally you just press Enter and Dash will open your browser. As simple as that.
Or perhaps you want to do a Google search (or any search for that matter) on Spider Man. Again, you call Dash, start typing G ? then spider man. Press Enter and Dash will open your browser at a Google search for Spider Man.
Maybe you are working with some files and folders. You select a folder, call Dash, start typing Zip, press Enter, and Dash will Zip compress the selected folder. Nothing could be simpler or faster!
Now you can easily and quickly launch your most used applications, or those you have not used in years, without frustration. Instantly send email, do all sorts of web searches, go to your favorite websites, create appointments, play music, zip files, find and open documents, and much more. All without clicking and without wasting time.
