CASTLE ROSE  NO longer supported by the developer, According to the web site.  
(Version 6.3)

ANONYMOUS  tried it. liked it. but i prefer growl and the huge amount of apps it supports.  
(Version 6.1)

IBOOK G5  In my system,Mac OS 10.3.9_Panther,not 10.4_Tiger, the installed iAlert v5.4 brings up the v6.0 update availability alert which requires 10.4.

This have happend on the previous version ,iAlert 5.3.

Why still leave stayed this matter to remove unnecessary alert?  
(Version 6.0)

IBOOK G5   In my system surrounding,OS 10.3.9_Panther,not 10.4_Tiger, the installed iAlert v5.2 brings up the update availability alert which requires 10.4.

This have happend on the previous version ,iAlert 5.3.

Why not fix this matter to remove unnecessary alert.  
(Version 5.4)

ANONYMOUS  Have not tried this yet, but GROWL is AWSOME!  
(Version 5.3)

DEO OKSSIPIN  This is amazing.

Free and easy to use.  
(Version 5.1)

ANONYMOUS  OK, you can delete an alert, how how the heck do you get it back?  
(Version 5.0)

JOY  (give valid reasons to backup your claims)

Seems more sophisticated than 2.x.

It seems that "iAlertTerminalPlugin 1.0" have been unavailable for days. How come?  
(Version 4.3)

CYRIL ANGER  If iAlert doesn't launch, try deleting the file com.angeman.iAlert.plist from your preferences  
(Version 4.3)

ANONYMOUS  Still doesn't work. Nothing opens when I click on the "Show Preferences" button.  
(Version 4.3)

ROGER  So Happy that PrefPane is back thx  
(Version 4.2)

ANONYMOUS  App doesn't open...

Otherwise I've always liked iAlert...  
(Version 4.0)

ANONYMOUS  The last versions till this 4.0 worked fine.

But this little one just sits there doing nothing at all.

Pity I trashed the old pal of mine.

Think its a fine application.  
(Version 4.0)

ANONYMOUS  Have you guys ever tried LanOSD (http://oomz.net/Lanosd/), another free notification app?

It has much more features over iAlert in terms of command line control, and far more icons and backgrounds to choose from.

Downside is that it doesn't have a "persistant" alert option, i.e., all alerts disappear after a certain amount of time.  
(Version 3.3)

PETER MAURER  What does "iAlertHelper" do? Can I use iAlert without installing it? I'd certainly like to give iAlert a try, but I won't install an input manager without knowing what it does.  
(Version 2.3)

ANONYMOUS  Hrm. In some ways it's way better than Growl. We haven't seen any updates to Growl in a long time. Is it still being developed?

I'd love to see one standard emerge for these sort of alerts, though. Two competing standards for this kind of thing is bad.

If iAlert can get more developers on board with support for iAlert (Adium being the biggest of the bunch, prolly) then it would probably become the defacto standard.

As someone suggested below, having an open API and command line control over alerts is what's going to make this the standard.

I like Growl a lot. Maybe this will give the Growl team a reason to start releasing software instead of to-do lists. (That sounds harsh, but... they really do need to do something or stand back out of the way and let someone who is committed to supporting the alert software get the job done.)  
(Version 2.3)

ANONYMOUS  How is this different than Growl!?  
(Version 2.3)

ANONYMOUS  Great software.

Is there a command line utility that can send some messages to iAlert?

With such, iAlert's potential power would expand further more.

What I am thinking right now is to use iAlert with cron.  
(Version 2.2)

NICK HRISTOV  Doesn't work at all. Great job!  
(Version 2.2)

ANONYMOUS  That new Lime theme is delicious. Somebody's getting a donation on payday.  
(Version 2.2)

JAG  Keep 'em coming! This is a great piece of software - very helpful, very intuitive.

Update every half-hour, if you like!

Cyril - you are the bomb!

Thanks!

Just a guy...  
(Version 2.0)

ANONYMOUS  No. Just release them as you see fit. This software is delightful.  
(Version 1.5)

ANONYMOUS  To the Dev, SLOW DOWN. One release per month, unless it's important.  
(Version 1.5)

ANONYMOUS  Growl can do some things that iAlert can't, and iAlert can do things Growl can't.  
(Version 1.4)

ANONYMOUS  Growl is a free open source implementation of the same idea http://growl.info  
(Version 1.4)

WANDERER  What a great concept, has potential. (Although the web site I set for notification when it changes already reports 2 changes. It's my own site and I have not touched it!)  
(Version 1.3)
