DESCRIPTION
The Application Enhancer system allows you to enhance or redefine certain behaviors for applications running on your system. It provides a way for third-party enhancer modules to modify how your applications work. Application Enhancers cannot affect the core system - they operate on an application level, therefore, they cannot cause a whole Mac OS X system to crash.

The technology behind Application Enhancer system has been in research and development for more than 4 years now, and many of our haxies (including WindowShade X, FruitMenu, Silk and others) are using it.

Features:

  • Provides capabilities to use Application Enhancer modules.
  • Completely free of charge.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 2.5b1:
  • Added compatibility for Mac OS X 10.5.
  • APE now requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later and will not install on older versions of Mac OS X.
  • Application Enhancer will now refuse to load any APE module that is not marked as compatible with 10.5 on Mac OS X 10.5.
  • Addressed some problems with some unpatchables due to the wonkiness of the x86 ABI (Includes APELite).
  • The APE prefpane now shows why some APE modules cannot be loaded.
  • Removed all references to the Rosetta workaround as Apple fixed that bug in Mac OS X 10.4.9 and the workaround no longer has any beneficial results.
  • Worked around a prebinding bug in Mac OS X 10.4.10 and earlier that made APE treat some applications as if they were on the exclude list.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

    UMIJIN  Ummm - why is this still being developed? AE is not compatible with the Leopard Architecture. Go back to the drawing board and come up with something actually functional.  (Version 2.5b1)

    FLOWERM  The only haxie I have used is WindowShade. I gave the new version a whirl. It didn't work for me (running on a new iMac, 10.5.2). When clicked, windows ended up nearly out of view (just a few millimeters showed above the bottom edge of my screen) and in the wrong corner. I uninstalled it. I will wait for a later version.  (Version 2.5b1)

    TUISHIMI  Just a note, I will inform the developers as well, but I was overjoyed to see the haxies back and immediately installed the ones available (I have licenses for them all) and none of them worked for me, after logging out and logging back in. I did not restart my computer.

    Please let me know if they worked for you.

    (AE 2.5b1).  (Version 2.5b1)
