QuickLook which was first introduced in Leopard is a great system feature, I think. It works with most file formats straight away, but for those that don't work there are plugins available, something which I was not really aware of until a few days ago when I went to <http://www.qlplugins.com/> and downloaded 3 very useful plug-ins.

BetterZipQL (shows the contents of ZIP files)
ScriptQL (shows the contents of AppleScript files)
Suspicious Package (shows the contents of installation packages)


Unfortunately both "Folder.qlgenerator" (shows folder contents) and HetimaClipping.qlgenerator (previews clippings) do not seem to work in Snow Leopard. Does anyone know of a replacement for  HetimaClipping.qlgenerator?

Here is a simple, general overview of QuickLook:
