backuplist+ - 4.0

Backuplist+ is a simple, yet powerful file copy and backup application for Mac OSX. With it you can create lists of your important folders and files that you want to save to an external hard drive or other destination. It makes simple copies so there is no need for complex restore operations. It will automatically collect all the important system preferences and application preferences for safe keeping as well. There are many other options including single compressed archives or Burn folders ready for making CD or DVD hard copies. And you can schedule backups daily or weekly. The elegant and intuitive interface makes it easy and fun to use.


What's new in this version:

* Backuplist+ 4.0 has several bug fixes and a new feature. The number of incremental backup folders now correlates with the limit set by the user. Also, psync now works properly with folders that have spaces in their names.
* Backuplist+ now has fully automated updates. It will check for updates on startup and, if user agrees, download and install new updates if they exist. Thanks to Andy Matuschak for the Sparkle framework that enables this.

BSInspectors - 1.0



Inspecting the objects that I deal with in my applications has been a dream of mine since I discovered this isn't working in Xcode. I finally decided to do that stuff myself and here it is: inspectors for your objects. The default version supplies an inspector for Arrays and Dictionaries and everything else is simply inspected by its debug string. The BSInspectors include a simple API for everyone to create his own plugins, so you can even inspect the objects you created just for your own projects. The archive includes the source-code and a sample-plugin.

ArtSaver - 1.5

It is like the built-in Slide Show screensaver on Mac OS X, but with more options and features:

* Keeps a persistent list of all the images found in the specified directory tree. This allows the screen saver to handle huge directory trees, and still have the benefit of
o displaying images immediately, and,
o not "exercising" the disk every time it gets invoked.
* Options include:
o the speed of the zoom-in and -out;
o the duration for how long an image is displayed before the next one;
o whether or not the path of the image currently being displayed should be displayed, too.
o many more ...
* You can specify constraints for excluding images from being displayed:
o the minimal size in pixels (e.g., to exclude thumbnails);
o the minimal size in bytes;
o a list of file patterns; if the path of an image matches one of the patterns, it gets excluded (e.g., to exclude "index prints").


Installation: just open the disk image, and copy ArtSaver.saver to the directory /Library/Screen Savers or ~/Library/Screen Savers (depending on write permissions and taste).


What's new in this version:

* new option to display only the basename of the pictures
* new option to switch the zoom in/out effect off
* logs the filenames of the displayed images (can be reviewed in System Profiler)
* various little things in the source code
