ManilaMail - 1.1

ManilaMail is an itty bitty "status bar" application that controls the most vital functions of Apple Mail in Mac OS X. This application is based off of the Gmail part of the Google Notifier and as such it is extremely light weight. There is no Growl integration or anything fancy like that. However, this little app is still very useful and it provides the following amazing features:

* The ability to display the count of all unread messages (not only the messages in the inbox)
* Menu items to show the inbox, create a new message, and check for new messages
* The optional ability to automatically reopen Apple Mail if it is closed when ManilaMail is trying to do a count of unread messages
* And that is about it

Note that this application will can reopen Mail if Mail is closed between unread message counts. Some may see this as a flaw but this is exactly what I wanted this application to do when I first designed it. The idea is to keep the user from accidentally closing Mail and therefore not receiving notifications of new mail.

Organise Pro - 2.2.4

Organise 2 is a completely rewritten version of Organise, built as a Universal Binary and using Objective-C rather than Java for a lighter, faster-loading, more robust and slicker user experience.

Organise 2 will potentially come in two flavours - The Lite version is a no-frills, simple to use application containing the fundamental Organise features - Contacts, Inventory , Orders and Invoicing.

Organise 2 Pro builds on earlier versions of Organise. The core is the Lite version, but will add Time Management (the old 'to do' list with time recording against orders), Data Management (exporting to spreadsheet or html, reporting) and Accounts Managment (basic accounting).

These Pro features can be switched on or off so that the interface remains uncluttered by buttons that you don't use.

There is currently no need for the Lite version to be available because the Pro version is free, and the Pro features can be switched on or off.

CLIX - 1.8a

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.

Timer II - 2.0

The original Timer started as an oven timer. Often, I'd be working on a new program or surfing the web and have something in the oven. So I cobbled together Timer in my spare time in Applescript Studio. That simple timer turned out to be surprisingly popular!

As time went on, I found I wanted something to let me sleep to my iTunes playlists and then shut off iTunes. Similarly, I thought it would be nice to wake to my music. So I expanded Timer to accommodate those changes, and Timer II was born.

SyncTunes - 2.0

SyncTunes synchronises tracks and podcasts from iTunes with a mounted volume (e.g. such as a SD card in a card reader, a PDA's expansion card using Missing Sync, or mobile phones' internal memory).

Who might find SyncTunes useful? In short, many people with a Mac, iTunes and a PDA or phone with audio playback capability, or non-iPod music player. From user reports, SyncTunes transfers files that work with Palm PDAs, Sony PSP, Sony Ericsson K750/P910/W800i, Siemens SX1 (Symbian s60), Nokia E and N series, and no-brand MP3 player. It is probably compatible with other audio players too, except iPods and any audio player which has a special database file.

SyncTunes provides many options for customising where tracks will be copied to: the destination folder and the subfolder for playlist tracks [podcasts will always be place in the 'podcasts' subfolder unless they are part of the selected playlist]. You can also specify if the tracks should be stored in a single folder or in artist/album subfolders. Should your device support m3u playlists, SyncTunes will create them for you.

Your device doesn't support the original file format, or you want to change the format settings? SyncTunes can convert the tracks while it copies them to the device/card.

Your device doesn't like Mac OS X's hidden files? SyncTunes will remove them from the folders it uses. For basic audio players, there is also a 'Simple' mode for quickly overriding destination folder settings and will copy just the playlist tracks to the device's/card's top-level folder (and convert formats if you want).

SyncTunes's only requirements are that the memory of the device/card is mounted on the Mac's desktop, and is writeable. Note: SyncTunes can copy tracks with any file format, even DRM protected formats, but it does not perform any DRM-removal on the files. For each file format transferred, you must have a player application that is capable of handling the format.
