Nice little app. Would be handy to be able to edit the generated .dev URL to be different from the folder.


Thats not really how Pow[1] works. It's weird that there isn't any mention of Pow on that page if that's what it's using in the backend. I didn't download it since I'm not on 10.7, maybe it mentions it later.

I wrote something similar (https://github.com/rktjmp/ker-pow) a while ago but never considered using it to actually make new ~/.pow/ links, I might add that in. Anvil is probably much more useful!

I think you will find that is _exactly_ how Pow works. Because you're just creating a symlink (ln -s source_name link_name) you can name it whatever you want. (i.e. ln -s ~/sites/my_full_url.com.au ~/.pow/blog)


Whoops, yeah – you're 100% correct. Not sure what I was actually thinking...


You can - right-click on the row to edit the name, as well as open in Finder or Terminal.


Maybe just make it so double clicking a site lets you rename it?


Right-click -> rename.


Doesn't work for me on Macbook Air with Ctrl + Click
