Fenetres Volantes - 1.1
You are not using your windows ? FenĂȘtres Volantes make them fly ! After some idle time that can be set in the System Preferences, the windows take off the screen and flutter in the void. On a mouse move, the windows immediately come back and stuck to their original position.
What's new in this version:
* addition of an option "Realistic reflections" in the preferences. But it could slow down FenĂȘtres Volantes on old Mac.
* correction of the bug of doubling of the windows.
* correction memory leak in the configuration window.
* improvement of futur compatibility with MacOSX 10.5.
* correction of the bug of gray screen when animated background.
* modification of the method of display of the credits.
* suppression of the monitoring of certain events likely to cause the premature end of the screen saver.
* addition of a log on the event causing the end of the screen saver.
* test of the combination of keys MAJ+CTRL+COMMAND when click on button OK of the preferences, to activate or not the debug mode. [Known bug] Certain configurations with multiple screens prevent FenĂȘtres Volantes to function properly (darken screen) in “on all joined screens” display mode. You can, however, safely try to select this mode in screen save's options. [Limitation] There is no anti-aliasing: this limitation comes from QuartzComposer. The correction of this limitation depends now only on APPLE.

Relationship Completer - 1.0.0
Let’s say you have the two Address Book entries: “John Doe” and “Jane Doe”. If John and Jane are married, you may set the appropriate “Related Name” fields in Address Book to denote this fact. To completely realize the relationship you will need to add a spouse relationship to both John and Jane’s entry - each pointing to the other. This violates my first law of data entry duplication: don’t do it.
That’s where Relationship Completer comes in. It will add a new menu item for “Related Names” that allows you to automatically complete the relationship by creating the complementary related name entry. Now all you need to do is create one of the spouse entries and have the other one created automatically.

PDFView - 0.14.3
PDFView is a lightweight Mac OS X application to display PDF files.
What does it offers more than Preview?
* By default, the main window will open up maximized, and the zoom level will be automatically the highest possible to fit the document into your screen - so that documents will become finally readable. Especially valuable if you are using a small size screen.
* PDFView supports a powerful full screen mode, and a innovative "presentation" mode, in which nothing is displayed but your document, not even scroll bars. This mode is designed with Beamer user in mind, but not restricted to them. Apple Remote support is also planned, in the future.
* PDFView offers powerful integration with LaTeX:
o it recognizes when the file is updated on disk and offers to reload it;
o if you are using the PDFSync LaTeX package, you can switch back and forth between the document and the text editor; just Command-click on a point in the PDF to be taken to the corresponding LaTeX line in your editor (customizable in the preferences);
o again, if you are using PDFSync, you can set up your editor to jump you to the appropriate page in the PDF (please refer to this page for instructions about it).
* PDFView has a very nice magnification tool: just drag around the document to use it.
* PDFView supports a useful miniature display.
Among other features:
* PDFView lets you view your PDF the way you want: you can rotate pages, choose to display one or two pages at the same time, let it choose the best zoom level or fine-tune it.
* PDFView can be configured to reload, at startup, the document you had open when you closed it, and for each of them it remembers all the display settings you changed, and the page you were viewing.
What's new in this version:
Bug fixes
* Fixed a crash, that occurred randomly when the document was updated.
* Restored search.
* Slightly updated German translation.
* Warning: the outline status is unpredictable, after an update: it may work, it may not work, it may crash, it may be out-of-date. I'm gonna work on it for the next release.
Known bugs: This is a short list of already known bugs, on which I will start working as soon as my exams will finish. Thanks to all the people who signaled them, and please avoid reporting them again.
* PDFView keeps the file locked, even when the document is closed.
* The resizing behaviour, when toggling the drawer, will be updated in a later release.
* Support for LaTeX projects with more than one input files will be added.
* Requirement for PDFSync will be scrapped, and PDFView will move to the more modern system used by TeXShop.
* Some kind of marking will be added, when opening a specific file in a PDF from a latex source.

Latency Fixer AU - 1.0.1
The plug-in reports to the host application that it has a latency (controlled by the plug-in parameters) but does not actually apply any processing to the audio signal. This causes the host to use its own latency compensation to advance the audio fed into the plug-in by the requested amount.
This is useful to compensate for e.g. routing audio via outboard effect processors, where the audio's journey out of your audio interface and back in to the computer introduces a latency into the signal. For example you may find it useful in conjunction with Logic's Helper->I/O plug-in.
For it to work, the host application must support 'plug-in delay compensation' and the feature must be turned on. Recent versions of Logic and Digital Performer support this feature, for example. (Preferences->Audio->General in Logic.)
In general applications will not respond to changes in the latency setting during playback. If you need to interactively set the latency, try setting this plug-in to a large setting and then using my Buffer Delay plug-in to experiment with different settings. Once you've found the correct values, subtract the Buffer Delay delay from the latency setting and remove the Buffer Delay plug-in.
Unfortunately Logic 6 does not respond to changes of latency at all, even when playback is stopped. As a workaround, Latency Fixer remembers its last used settings and uses them as defaults when creating a new instance of the plug-in, which is the only time Logic 6 queries the latency. Logic 7 works properly, in that it responds to latency changes in the plug-in.
What's new in this version:
first Universal Binary version

SurfRabbit - 1.2.2
SurfRabbit is a browser add-on for Safari, Shiira, NetNewsWire, DeskBrowse and WebDesktop that will allow you to customize how web pages are displayed.
Find a page 'too busy'? Don't ever use that one column on a page of your favorite site? Content on a page is too narrow? With SurfRabbit, you can easily fix it with a click!
You can also specify custom style codes to further customize the page. Pages can be customized individually, or you can apply your customization to a whole site, a portion of a site, or only a selected group of pages.
You can also browse and download customizations created by other users, or publish your own, right from the SurfRabbit interface.
What's new in this version:
* Easier custom CSS, better preview creation: As part of the last nightly, we improved how custom CSS is added and you no longer need to worry about how to apply custom CSS codes to pages when a user style sheet is involved - this is now done automatically, and eliminates and simplifies several options in SurfRabbit.
We’ve also fixed some problems and made improvements to the preview generation, which will produce better images and avoid blank images under certain circumstances.
* OmniWeb 5.5 Support: Since the last nightly the final version of OmniWeb 5.5 has been released; while support remains the same as the last nightly (as viewer only), our test on the final version indicate that it will most probably be compatible, however the lack of debugging tools in OmniWeb has not made it possible for us to work out the current incompatibilities to make customizing with OmniWeb work - we’ll keep working on it.
* Better handling of dynamic content: Improvements have also been made on how dynamically generated content is handled, and in most cases should now be customizable. We’ve also improved how some other content is handled (such as flash and inline frames), but due to a bug in Webkit flash content may still be displayed after being customized.
* Other enhancements: This release should also fix an incompatibility with PyObjC applications that has been reported to us. We’ve also moved all of SurfRabbit’s menu items under its main menu.
