what is growl?
Hello All and happy Friday: I have read references to growl on this list before but have never understood what it is. Could someone give an explanation especially its relation to voiceover?

Re: what is growl?
In brief, Growel is an app that verblley notifies you when things happen in certain apps. Before the notification center, it was the best way to get information in real time when apps did certain things. Truth to tell, I never saw much benefit in it myself.

Re: what is growl?
Growl is a notifications system that most of us used before Os X 10.8 Mountain Lion introduced the notification centre. It provides notifications for supported apps in the form of audio/visual notifications, the audio portion using the system voice to speak the notification. Regards Chris Happy Easter!

Re: what is growl?
I still use Growl even though I'm using Mavericks because I turn off Voiceover in apps where I don't need it such as VMWare Fusion and the RSGames client. If notification center itself had an option to use the system voice to speak notifications, I would get rid of Growl.
