Download a Sogudi that is compatible with Safari 3 here:

  1. I'm calling this "beta", so use at your own risk.
  2. I haven't completed the installer yet, so you'll need to get your hands dirty and install it yourself.
  3. If you successfully install and test it, please add your information to the test case table below.

A note for sites such as MacUpdate, VersionTracker, Tucows, etc: Please do not update your listings to this version yet. It is not ready for the general public. The download has no instructions or installer. This page is meant for beta testers, only. They know what they are getting into, but the visitors to your sites will not.

Problems/Feedback

It seems to only work with the address bar, not the search field. It's been a while since I used Sogudi... is this by design? -- klimas»gmail

It will work if you have a shortcut named "default_search". -- KitzKikz

Okay, it seems to be working correctly now. I was hoping you could type any keyword into the search field like you can in the location bar, but I guess that's a design decision and not really relevant here. -- klimas»gmail


How does one know what version of Sogudi is in effect? µµI just download and tested ver 0.47b1 on 10.4.8 with Safari 2. It works just fine but... I had no problem with the installation instructions, but Sogudi was already working for me and I wasn't able to manually uninstall it so I don't know whether ver 0.4.4 is still working or whether the new version took over. I couldn't find any Sogudi files in either ~/library/input managers or ~/library/application support to remove. µµ

    1. Look in the upper right hand corner of the Sogudi window. That should list the active version of Sogudi.
    2. The lower left hand corner should show if you are using the most recent version or if a newer one is available.
    3. The "Check Now" button can be used to verify the version you are using.

    • NOTE: This beta release still reports itself as 0.4.6! I haven't altered that portion of the code yet.
    • To uninstall any prior version of Sogudi, download 0.4.6 from here and use the "Uninstall" option.
