BUBBAMAC  One of my favorite programs!

Only issue in Leopard (isn't an OMC issue, but a Leopard issue), is the stupid nested contextual menus.

Anyone have a workaround for moving everything to the main menu so we don't have to go to "More ->" and wait for the rest of the menu to load?

ABRACODE  The "More" submenu in Finder is very annoying and I don't know of any workaround for that. Apple did

not provide any preference settings to return to previous behavior. Apple will

listen only if many users complain, so I strongly advise you to go to Mac OS

X feedback page:

http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/

and tell them what you think about it.

MORJOVY  Super tool!

However, OMCEdit is slightly buggy for me. I understand it is free, so many thanks to its developer! In spite of some bugs it is very powerful and handy.

Also I want to write about my problem, maybe somebody will help me to solve it. In some cases "not Finder Window" doesnt work and command becomes visible when i click between files. anybody knows how to solve this? i cannot find any contact or forum to get support...

TUISHIMI  Love this app, use it with Finder to bring back some of the things I missed with BeOS. Works well, easy to use/configure.

Wishlist: I now use PathFinder exclusively and, obviously, OMC doesn't work with Path Finder (I don't even know if PF has hooks it could use). So, now if I use Finder menu items to use OMC, Finder is started.

Otherwise, fantastic little tool!

JECWOBBLE  Using 10.3.9 on a G4 iMac, I downloaded and installed 1.7.1 twice and it never worked- my custom context menus did not show up. I replaced 1.7.1 with 1.7 and got my menus back. Perhapds the universal binary isn't working properly

ANONYMOUS  I'm noticing a few bugs with 1.7b1. Primarily that scripts are not being applied to all selected items and OMCEdit is playing havoc with the ordering of my menus.

Looking forward to b2.

TOM  Version 1.7b1 is one of the most significant updates in OMC history.

A lot of effort was put into making it a complete GUI development environment for shell scripts and AppleScripts. With this new version you can build a very powerful applet just by editing resources and connecting controls to scripts.

This beta version is pretty stable but please report bugs you find. There are a couple of features which will be added before it is final but the greatest need is for documentation. We would like to ask OMC users to help us write a manual and tutorial. Example applications and scripts are needed too. Final version will also need nice PNG images for predefined custom output windows. Icon artists may contribute droplet icons for use with DropletBuilder. Anyone who helps with OMC will receive a free license of MailTemplate, EntourageTemplate or ClipMasterCM.

This tool is unique to Mac OS X and with your help it can become better and attract more Mac users.
