HandyMan is a control strip launching module designed to allow quick and easy access to applications without having to navigate through several finder windows or through a multi-layered, hierarchical Apple menu. HandyMan works by clicking on icons installed in a floating window. This approach is much handier than aliases that are on the desktop because the floating windows that contain the icons can never be covered by windows. HandyMan also requires a lot less desktop space than the same number of icons on the desktop.
