  4. Find the >_ icon in your menu bar

    QuickCMD has no Dock icon. It lives at the top right of your screen. Click the >_ icon and you'll find a Kill process on port command waiting. Hit + Add Command to make your own.
    ⚠️On a MacBook with a notch, a full menu bar can hide icons behind the camera. Quit a few menu bar apps, or hold ⌘ and drag icons to make room.

Troubleshooting

I can't see the icon in the menu bar+
QuickCMD has no Dock icon on purpose. If your menu bar is full, the notch can hide it: quit a few menu bar apps or ⌘-drag icons around. Opening QuickCMD again from Spotlight won't create a second copy.
My command says “command not found”+
QuickCMD runs commands with your login shell (zsh -l). Make sure the tool is on your PATH in ~/.zprofile (Homebrew adds itself there), not only in ~/.zshrc.
sudo, ssh or vim don't work in the output panel+
They need a real terminal. Edit the command and turn on “Open in Terminal.app”.
How do I update?+
Download the new DMG from the Polar portal and drag it to Applications, replacing the old one. Your commands are kept.
How do I uninstall?+
Quit QuickCMD from its popover, then drag it from Applications to the Trash. To remove your saved commands too, delete ~/Library/Application Support/QuickCMD.
