What's New
Version 1.28:
iTunesMenu: displays the current track, artist, media, bit rate, duration and album title (if available) and allows you to start, stop, pause, mute, unmute, alter shuffling, skip tracks and quit iTunes directly from the menu bar.
Requirements
PPC, Mac OS X 10.3 or later. Should be Leopard compatible.
I really like the accessibility of having these in the menu bar, but I use Shapeshifter and have a dark theme, so it's hard to read the black text on my dark grey menus. Perhaps and option for us dark theme fans?
Not that I would use all menu items but from the few I would use I'm only using Process Tamer because of it's single icon in the menu bar -- I'm on a laptop, not a 30-inch display.
Great little apps. It would be preferable if the dev were to eliminate the app names from the menu bar. yCal is about 3 times as wide as it needs to be and SysUtilities as almost 10 times too wide.
I'm also getting a "Register Tapir" item in the menus. Isn't this all freeware?
