TeXShop - 2.13



TeXShop is a TeX previewer for Mac OS X, written in Cocoa. Since pdf is a native file format on OS X, TeXShop uses "pdftex" and "pdflatex" rather than "tex" and "latex" to typeset; these programs in the standard teTeX distribution of TeX produce pdf output instead of dvi output.

MarcoPolo - 2.0




MarcoPolo brings context-aware computing to your portable Mac computer. It allows your computer to determine its context through gathering evidence from your environment (evidence sources), using flexible rule-based fuzzy matching to make an educated guess (rules), and then performing arbitrary actions upon changing context (actions). MarcoPolo's concept of contexts is a generalisation of a location, and encompasses more than just where your computer is. A context might represent what you are doing, or what else is going on around you. MarcoPolo quietly stays in the status bar at the top of your screen (right-hand side of the menu bar), from where it can be configured to your own needs.

Baseball Widget - 2.5.1



Keep an eye on your favorite baseball team (MLB or minor leagues down to Class A) - all the information you need in one single and small widget. Show the current scoreboard, full results from previous days, the schedule for the upcoming week (game times are displayed in your local time), or current division and wildcard standings. For ongoing or past games, show the score overview and current game situation while having a convenient link to the full box score only a click away. The widget is optimized to retrieve the smallest amount of data required and thus is much faster than refreshing the same data in your browser (which typically uses about 20 to 40 times as much data to display).
