CLIX - 1.8u



CLIX (Command Line Interface for OS X) is a Cocoa application that harnesses the power of Unix. It's perfect for the pros and can be helpful for the noobs too.

The CLIX package includes a starter database file with close to 1,500 system commands for investigating your system status, for cleaning out junk files, for getting at esoteric secret settings in your most used applications - and more.

And most importantly, CLIX is infinitely extensible: you can add to it at any time, in any way you please - add new commands, new command categories, new command database files, and so on.

And unlike other systems, CLIX is 100% 'WYSISYG' (what you see is what you get): it's exactly the command lines you would use at a terminal if you were so inclined. So sometime you might remember a command or two and try it on your own.

CLIX comes with commands for viewing all your system logs, for cleaning out browser caches, for pruning and fixing 'plist' preference files, for spelunking in root's back yard, for ridding your system of all kinds of junk, for seeing what your virtual memory is up to, what your Netinfo database manager is up to, and on and on.

CLIX also has its own newsletter and forum (www.dotatdot.co.uk/clix/) for in-depth discussion of Unix and CLIX.


What's new in this version:

* Adds further facilities to thwart 'path hijacking'. See http://rixstep.com/2/20070204,00.shtml for further info.
* Universal build.

FinancesOSX - 2.2

FinancesOSX (Universal) calculates the value of any one of five parameters for five types of financial calculations: Loans, Investments, Deposits, Withdrawals and Inflation ... given values for the remaining four parameters. An amortization table is provided for loans.

Loans are the conventional installment loans with an initial loan amount to be paid back in regular payments over a fixed period of years at a specific interest rate.

Investments are an initial lump sum that grows over a period of years at a fixed rate, as in the case of investing a lump sum from an inheritance or winning the lottery.

Deposits are regular periodic deposits of a fixed amount into an account that grows at a constant rate over a fixed number of years, such as an investment club or a regular savings plan.

Withdrawals determine how long you can take a periodic fixed amount from an initial lump sum investment at a fixed growth rate before the account is totally depleted, answering the question 'How long will my life-long savings last after I retire?'

Inflation shows the effect of inflation on the purchasing power of a future $ amount in today's $ after a number of years at a estimated annual inflation rate. This provides some perspectives on the question 'What lifestyle will my accumulated savings support at some point in the future?' by bringing the future $ amount back to today's equivalent $ in the context of today's prices.


What's new in this version:

* Added calculation of the effective interest rate when prepaid interest (points) are charged for loans. Points are expressed as a percentage of the original loan amount.
* Added summary rows to the amortization table.The starting payment (row) and the number of payments for each summary are set in the {Preferences ...} menu.
* Made minor improvements to the interface and error trapping.
