When I open the Growl preferences, I see lots of applications which I already uninstalled. How can I do a Growl "cleanup"?

Regards,
Daniel Serodio

Growl retains registrations because we have no reliable way to know
whether an app was deleted, or just moved. There is no general
command to do a cleanup, but you can go through the list and delete
the apps you want to that way. If its a lot of apps, you can quit
Growl, go into ~/Library/Application Support/Growl/Tickets and delete
tickets there, and then relaunch Growl (this option will go away in
Growl 2.0 when tickets will be moved into a single core data powered
database)

If that's the case and if they are moving in to a what ever that was how are we then to remove the registrations ourselves if it can't tell if an app has been uninstalled?

Thanks.

Hit delete on the item you want to remove. :)
