I dig this too. It's what I loved about Quicksilver - it had simple grammar that went direct object, verb, (optionally) indirect object. That tied nicely into the plugin system, which gave it tremendous flexibility. Successors like Alfred, Google Bar and Raycast are trying to recreate the unix command line and it doesn't work nearly as well.

Yes Quicksilver was very intuitive to work with, wonder why these new tools won't replicate the same behavior?
What's Quicksilver?
