KRYSTOF VASA  It's fixed in this version. In the previous versions Snippet was returning focus to the previous application by activating it - just as you would by clicking on its icon in the Dock, which - like Snippet did - opens a new document window. We've considered this a feature as when you're working with code your active application is often the development tool - if no window is open it makes sense for one to be created. But it's 'fixed' now.  
(Version 1.3)

KRYSTOF VASA  I have to strongly disagree with you. If you read the description, you would note the huuuuuge difference between Safari and Stainless. Stainless - unlike Safari - forks one processes for each site, which makes it more stable and not memory hogging (as any memory retained by a web site is released the moment the tab is closed).  
(Version 0.1)

KRYSTOF VASA  Note that if your PNG is 24-bit, it gets stripped down to 8 bits only.  
(Version 1.0.2)

KRYSTOF VASA  I know it's not really disabling it, but visually, it's a solution. I'm not saying it's perfect, but it is one. For the future I have a plan to create an app disabling the spellchecker on application basis (you won't need to replace anything physically), but that would be a bit harder to implement.  
(Version 1.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  That's not exactly true. When an app need memory, it requests it and when there is enough of RAM memory, it gets it. If not, swapping comes to place. The OS writes some memory that hasn't been used for a while to the hard drive (typically) -> frees memory for the app requesting the memory.

So, when you know you won't be using anything but one app and you need to give it all the performance you can get, this is the app you need - e.g. presenting something with Photoshop. However, I do believe that a regular user has no usage in this, but I'm not saying it's trash either.  
(Version 2.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  I think it would be possible. How would you like me to implement it? As a range of pages? Or maybe a list with checkboxes next to each page?

Thanks for your ideas.

Best,

Krystof  
(Version 1.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  Hi,

thank you for your input. I will take a look and see what can I do about it. I may be able to fix it. I needed it just for JPEG, so I didn't test other formats. Sorry for that.

Best,

Krystof  
(Version 1.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  Well, it should be just fine as you're able to run 32-bit on a 64-bit Mac without a problem. According to Apple, the only 64-bit app that's shipping right now with OS X is the Chess game. So you won't save much space removing Intel 64-bit code. However, all the (Cocoa) frameworks are 64-bit "ready", stripping them would save a lot of space, however, I wouldn't do it... Some links may be fragile. Slimming apps is one thing, but the system another.  
(Version 1.3.8)

KRYSTOF VASA  Please, could you let the user select the color? The pink/purple is just terrible...  
(Version 2.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  It's just XCode. There are many other development environments that do not support (yet?) UB by just checking a box. Why do you think Apple didn't release its pro-tools in January when it announced the first MacTel? It's not that easy sometimes.  
(Version 2.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  Some of the game cheats are hard to find. Mostly when the Mac cheats are slightly different than those on PC. Example may be Wipeout 2097 - the cheat codes are completely different. We go through the web and choose only the working ones.

We are not charging for the information we are providing, but for the time we have spent collecting this whole database. It's not a matter of hours, but days, to get the whole Codebook's database (which we are using under permission) to work with Gamer's Help and we have also spent a big amount of time crawling the web for new cheat codes.

At the moment, we have over 550 games in the database and about 770 entries. The database is growing. I believe that when some people can pay extra money just for a better GUI, they may also pay something for the convenience of having everything in one place.

Best regards,

Krystof Vasa

the developer  
(Version 1.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  I'm not the developer, but I'm gonna say this:

All the stuff that you mentioned can't really be done anything with. Unfortunately. I haven't downloaded it, but I bet it is some ugly kind of Java and that is I think already enough to say. Java is a nice idea of crossplatform development, which works, but sucks - it's painfully slow, (at least on OS X) doesn't look right (the windows aren't composite) and the controls' behavior is usually not as we're used to.

This is the huge disadvantage of this app. However, there is an advantage: it's available for 3 platforms at the same time. That's why the dev is never going to rewrite it in Cocoa. First off - he might not even own a Mac! He would have to learn a new language and that would commit him to one platform. If he's going after profit, the most profitable platform would be (I guess) Windows... Unfortunately.

So we have to deal with what we have here and not wine about what we don't have... There are many cool native (written in Cocoa) FTP clients for OS X which you may use instead.  
(Version 7.23)

KRYSTOF VASA  Hello,

I have sent you the SN twice and the email hasn't bounced, so I assumed you got it. I also haven't received any email from you regarding the SN. If you could provide me with a different email address which could work better than your current, please, contact me at untitledsoftware -AT- gmail.com

I am sorry for this.

Best regards,

Krystof Vasa,

developer  
(Version 4.1b)

KRYSTOF VASA  I have exactly the same problem, and yes, I am on Intel.  
(Version 1.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  Thank you for explaining.  
(Version 1.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  Could the developer tell us, please, what's the $19.95 difference between this and creating a disk image in Disk Utility? Thank you.  
(Version 1.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  This widget is great! One of a few I have ever used! Thank you!  
(Version 0.5)

KRYSTOF VASA  From my point of view, this looks too Windows-ish. I mean the icons:

1) the design - you need some aqua to it

2) they should be in the toolbar, rather than under the picture. On the Mac, the menu bar is on the top, and oftentimes, your mouse is on the top, and this app forces you to move your mouse too much.

But otherwise, it's a prettey cool app, keep up the good work!  
(Version 1.0.1)

KRYSTOF VASA  I have no idea what they mean by:

" *** Note: Bryce 6 will not function installed on a UNIX partition under Mac OS X.***"

but anyway - there is no Itel version yet?  
(Version 6.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  Not impressed at all! I used to be a RB developer, my product Liberer ( http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15432 ) used to be written in RB. When I got my new MacBook Pro in March, I decided to rewrite it in Cocoa. I didn't know Cocoa at all and I got it rewritten in two months. Now (after 6 months of development that was NOT intensive at all - I changed a few lines every other week) it has more features than it had, is more powerful and can rely on the newest technologies Apple releases!

An empty Universal Application built with RB has 7.1 MB. I mean WTF? In XCode, an empty app is not more than 100kB!

I, however, still need to use RB as I have multi-platform projects. But developers, you whose projects are Mac only, please, try using XCode...  
(Version R4)

KRYSTOF VASA  All hail Paul Barlow!  
(Version 1.0 Beta 1)

KRYSTOF VASA  Did you register?  
(Version 1.1.5)

KRYSTOF VASA  Hm. Great app. Do you think you could make it a preference, which button to hold? Holding Menu button enables Sofa Control...  
(Version 0.13)

KRYSTOF VASA  What about doing it like Sofa Control's developer - runs for X minutes every time...  
(Version 1.0)

KRYSTOF VASA  The only thing I'm missing is support for Movies - VideoCD and so on - and burning over the network. Then it will be a great application, I would even dare say BETTER than Toast itself. I have Toast 7 and when I compare it, this is way easier to use and has some options Toast doesn't have. To the developer: You ROCK!  
(Version 1.26)

KRYSTOF VASA  It's a great game, but an Universal Binary release would be even better!  
(Version 0.1.3)

KRYSTOF VASA  The best screen saver EVER!

My suggestin would be that it should be monitoring what's happening meanwhile underneathe the screensaver and update the image (like every 10 secs...)  
(Version 1.4)

KRYSTOF VASA  Mr. Errorr (?)

If you have any ideas how to improve this application, feel free to contact me via email at putaint[at]seznam.cz

I don't really understand the "UI is inconsistent " statement.

About the modal dialogs:

a) this is a beta version, in the final version, you'll be able to turn this off in the preferences

b) this is a protection of user's data, so the user doesn't do something that he/she doesn't want to do.

Please, it would greatly help me and further development of this program, if you would be so kind and contact me, telling me, what exactly is wrong in your eyes and I can try fixing it.

With regards,

Krystof Vasa, Developer  
(Version 4.0b2)

KRYSTOF VASA  And I forgot to say, that no plug-ins will probably work under a new RB that would compile Intel-based apps. The plugins will have to be recompiled first...  
(Version R2)

KRYSTOF VASA  I have been programming in RealBasic for a long time. Maybe way too long. I always wanted to start with Cocoa, but I was too lazy (as many of the RB users). But the Intel-transition was the point. In January I didn't know anything about Cocoa at all. Within a month or two I re-wrote nearly my whole application in Cocoa. It is way faster, way more reliable and much pretier. + all toolbars are customizable, etc.

It's just great.

And a message to RealBasic developers:

Intel! Intel! Intel! Intel! Intel! Intel! Intel! Intel! Intel!  
(Version R2)

KRYSTOF VASA  It's a really great (and FAST!) program. It's easy to understand and everything, but it lacks one thing. This application is meant to be for back up. Therefore there should be a feature to burn a DVD from an avi or mp4 file...  
(Version 0.7.1)

KRYSTOF VASA  Thank You! This is great tool for every developer that uses his own custom buttons, etc.  
(Version 1.5.2)

KRYSTOF VASA  e isn't for exponent. It is a constant used when solving exponential equations.  
(Version 1.5)

KRYSTOF VASA  Okay. This used to be the BEST under OS9. We waited for few years (4?) for the OS X version, which is slow, is Carbon and looks just like the old OS 9 version, doesn't have the new games in it and will have to be rewritten - again - in Cocoa, because in few next years as Apple will drop support os PPC applications.

This is a complete waste of money... And time.  
(Version 4.5.2)

KRYSTOF VASA  Does it work well on Intel Macs under Rosetta?  
(Version 7.0.2)

KRYSTOF VASA  Liberer doesn't allow people to change /System/Library

It only allows them to change the Home library (all users), and /Library - you mostly need an admin password for changing contents. In the /Library aren't that important files. It is the same as your home library but it has files shared with all accounts.

Hope you'll enjoy Liberer anyway.  
(Version 2.3)

KRYSTOF VASA  Anyone having problems with unstuffing the file, please, redownload it.

I am very sorry for this.

Krystof Vasa, Untitled Software  
(Version 2.2)

KRYSTOF VASA  Sorry, but we have no .org address, the info page IS in English, the download WORKS and the application IS just .sit, no .pkg. And as far as I know the site the application is, doesn't need any log in.

Please if you have any problem, feel free to ask me via e-mail.

Your faithfully,

Krystof Vasa  
(Version 1.7.1)

KRYSTOF VASA  You don't have to be always at home. That's why I said that it's useful in use with e.g. iCal. You make a new event and set as an alarm to open this application. You can use it when you are downloading smth/unstuffing some big files.  
(Version 0.1)

ALTOMASTER  Correct the permissions of iPhoto. Had the same problem when updated to 4.0.2  
(Version 4.0.3)

ALTO MASTER  Well, then translate me these words/phrases and I'll rename it:

ScreenSaver, slideScreenSaver, Create a ScreenSaver, etc.  
(Version 1.2.1)

ALTO MASTER  Hem. I'm using OS X 10.3 and when I open SystemPreferences there is an item called Desktop & Screen Saver NOT Desktop & Screen Effects.  
(Version 1.0)
