DESCRIPTION
Pathway is a semantic browser that tracks your steps through MediaWiki sites such as Wikipedia. It represents visited pages by nodes, which are interconnected to form the trail that you've made. This enables you to keep a clear overview of your wiki explorations.
WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.0.5:

Added

  • A preference to set a default font size in the browser view
  • Primitive caching support, not guaranteed to recover a visited page when offline. Real per-page harvesting of articles is a scheduled feature (I know many of you could really use this).
Fixed
  • Clicking links in the browser now correctly adds a new page to the collection. (Safari 3 workaround)
  • Search results now correctly load when Safari 3 is installed.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

    NEKO-CHAN  I can't seem to be able to save my path. i go through save, but no file is made.

    and this reminds me of an idea. an option for autosaving between pages or something.

    HONE MELGREN  Pretty cool and incredibly useful program just one thing thou' ...

    How do you search within a page ? I tried the search pages field but that only searchs the title of the wiki pages you have already opened. I would like to be able to search within the pages.

    A highlight - while - you - type function would be pretty cool and wouldn't break the current user interface you have right now too much.

    DOC RENAUD  The app crashes every time I chose "Customize toolbar". No way to modify.

    Doesn't remember window size nor window placement.

    JLENNON314  Absolutely entertaining, and an excellent way to go through the Wikipedia site without getting lost. Honestly, it's the "trail of breadcrumbs" that Wikipedia really needs.

    My only thing is that if I go back a page, it resets the page position to the top instead of where I linked from, which is rather frustrating. I hope and am sure that this will be fixed in the future.

    Want a great way to tax this program? Try going through a Wikitrip of the X-Men. Convoluted stories and character interactions is where this program really shines.

    M30318  Amazing, a very useful research tool! Apple should ask the developer to include it in their Leopard package.
