Noob trying: Flashlight does not seem to load

Agreed. I've tried re-installing thrice. No go.

see #494. Short version is that the magic code injection that Flashlight uses was broken in 10.10.4. There's a possible fix, however code injection will be basically impossible with El Capitan.

I noticed that back when I was running public beta 1. That's too bad. Thanks for the update.

Reply to this email directly orview it on GitHub(#532 (comment)).

Does this imply that Flashlight completely stopped working with 10.10.4 or are only a fraction of the plug-ins concerned by the code injection?

You can try (this)[https://gist.github.com/selaromi/59666a71387d39b5bfac] as suggested by @hufufuf

It worked for me. Thanks!
