DashLite 1.0 is utilities software developed by ChipChap.
DashLite performs one of two actions:

* Launches Dashboard if it has not been launched yet.
If a process name contains “DashboardClient”, DashLite kills the Dock, which restarts. All Dashboard processes will be eliminated until next activation, thereby freeing system resources.

Therefore, DashLite is a process toggle for Dashboard, without the residual overhead when Dashboard is not in use. Since Dashboard will not be running in the background, you may notice that launching it via DashLite is slightly slower. The best application of DashLite is in conjunction with a keystroke application launcher such as QuickSilver. You could easily keep using F12 (be sure to uncheck Dashboard in the Keyboard & Mouse system preference panel), or any other key combo you can configure, to launch Dashboard with Quicksilver or similar.
This mac program is freeware, so you can download and use it absolutely free. DashLite 1.0 supports different languages (including english). It works with Mac OS X.

Downloading DashLite 1.0 will take several seconds if you use fast ADSL connection.
