For various reasons, blogger Paul Stamatiou needs to regularly restart Firefox on his Mac. In order to streamline the process, he's created a shell script to be run by Automator via Finder's right/Control-click context menu.
That may sound heady, but the step-by-step is easy to follow. Once you've set it up, just right-click your desktop, go to Automator and then Restart Firefox. There's actually already a pretty good Restart Firefox extension, but the good thing about Paul's method is that it could be tweaked to work with any application, giving you quick access to restart your troubled apps whenever you want—like Quicksilver, for example.
