ASMEURER  This was quitting on load for me, but I deleted my old ~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver and ~/Library/Preferences/com.blacktree.Quicksilver.plist folders/files, and it works now.   
(Version 1.0b56a7)

ASMEURER  Hopefully it won't be too long. It took several months to get out a Leopard version, as I recall...  
(Version 1.5)

ASMEURER  One of the Java updates from a while ago broke this in Leopard, but I can confirm that it works again in Snow Leopard.  
(Version 0.09)

ASMEURER  This works in Snow Leopard if you set the application in question to run as 32-bits.   
(Version beta5)

ASMEURER  And fink too!  
(Version 1.0)

ASMEURER  Maybe your colors are out of whack. Check the colors preferences as well as the language preferences. If your foreground and background colors are the same, you will only see the current line because TextWrangler colors the current line.   
(Version 2.3)

ASMEURER  Thanks for the warning! I didn't even bother downloading this one.  
(Version 3.4.5)

ASMEURER  This latest release has a strange bug in it. If your keyboard shortcut includes the option key, it downloads the page instead of loading it. It is probably catching the option key as being held down when it loads the page, which defaults to downloading the page.   
(Version 1.0b18)

ASMEURER  This seems to have fixed the issue where it would not reload my tabs unless I opened a link from another application. My only complaint now regards search shortcut keys. I would like it if they could be activated anywhere, not just when you are in the search box. Also, when changing the search site when text is in the box, I would like it if it just changed the site and didn't open a search in a new window. (This is similar to how Acid Search worked back when it worked). That way, if I start typing a search and realize it is in the wrong engine, I don't have to cut the search, change the engine, and paste it back in just to get it in that tab.

Also, this doesn't really matter, but technically, the options in New Tabs should be a group of radio buttons that are disabled by a checkbox. See http://developer.apple.com/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/XHIGControls/XHIGControls.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30000359-SW4

Keep up the good work!  
(Version 1.0b17)

ASMEURER  This looks good, but it doesn't seem to support scripts in the /Library/iTunes/Scripts folder. It only works with the ~/Library/iTunes/Scripts/ folder. Please change this.  
(Version 1.0)

ASMEURER  Also, "fink apropos theappyouarelookingfor" searches the descriptions too. You should also run "fink selfupdate" and then "fink update-all" every once in a while to update the fink package descriptions and update everything you have installed. Of course, fink --help will tell you all of this. Considering FinkCommander doesn't work very well (at least in Leopard), I too would recommend just using the command line. Most of these programs must be invoked from the command line anyway, so you might as well just use it.   
(Version 0.5.4)

ASMEURER  My guess is that EasyFind is slow because it also searches contents. It probably doesn't bother using faster methods for just file names.

As for the options, using the affirmative (i.e., show hidden) would probably be the best choice. You might want to look at Apple's User Interface Guidelines if you are interested in improving your UI.   
(Version 1.0.2)

ASMEURER  Network volumes are perhaps the only use for this-I haven't tested the following too much with them. The Finder will automatically update info the instant it is changed. It uses the same technology that spotlight uses to automatically include search results without constantly indexing the hard drive. Every time a file is changed or created, the system kernel indexes it to spotlight and notifies the Finder if the file is visible in one of its windows.

Try it. Create a folder on your desktop called "test" and open it. Then open Terminal so you can still see the folder, and type "mkdir ~/Desktop/test/hello/" (without the quotes). You should instantly see a folder called "hello" inside your test folder. Then, make sure you can see the date and time modified for "hello". Wait until it is a different time from when you created the folder, then type "touch ~/Desktop/test/hello" in Terminal. You should instantly see the date modified change to the present time. You can try saving files while you watch the info too. The Finder is quite good at refreshing itself.   
(Version 1.2.3)

ASMEURER  This works great, except there are two bugs that bother me quite a bit. First, the mouse occaisionally will dissappear on the controling computer. Click will make it reappear, but it is still quite annoying as you can imagine. Second, when double tap is enabled, moving the mouse to the top of the screen and clicking causes the foreground window to move into the background instead of click on the menubar as expected.   
(Version 1.0.1)

ASMEURER  http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=2008101819445660&query=geek%2Btool  
(Version 2.1.2)

ASMEURER  Although Glims is still in an infant stage and has some issues, I highly recommend it for one reason: the developers are highly responsive to bug reports and suggestions. If there is something that doesn't work correctly or something that you would like added, just head over to their website and leave them a note on the feedback page. They are a little slow in integrating new suggestions, as they are receiving plenty of them, but they promise to respond to every single request.   
(Version 1.0b11)

ASMEURER  As long as we're suggesting free alternatives, I would suggest ACMEReader. It is more powerful than iComic and in active development. And it too is free.   
(Version 2.3.1)

ASMEURER  Does anyone know how to change the default shebang line for python scripts? I installed 2.6, but Xcode still wants me to run 2.5.   
(Version 3.1)

ASMEURER  I guess it is a trade off. On the one hand, programing languages that use braces can be auto indented, but on the other hand, all those characters clutter code and make it hard to read.

Also, with indented syntax, you never have to remember the closing brace.   
(Version 1.4)

ASMEURER  I probably would have used regular expressions in a text editor to do that.   
(Version 2.6)

ASMEURER  I'm not sure if this app can do what I want it to do. I would like to keep the automatic enabling and disabling of the backlight, but I want to raise the minimum threshold of ambient light required to turn it on. The way it is now, I cant see the keys very well on my early 2008 MBP because the letters are so similar in color to the keys themselves. I would like for the back light to come on in lighter situations than it currently does.

If this program cannot actually do this, could you add it as a feature?   
(Version 0.9.1)

ASMEURER  The sensors are backwards on my Early 2008 MacBook Pro.   
(Version 1.0)

ASMEURER  This won't accept Control-Spacae as a shortcut. I am trying to dump Quicksilver triggers for iTunes as they are kind of shaky, but I want to keep my shortcuts.   
(Version 3.0b8)

ASMEURER  I downloaded this because I wanted to replace Quicksilver's triggers to play/pause iTunes, but it doesn't let me set Control-Space as a keyboard action.   
(Version 1.5.2)

ASMEURER  http://web.archive.org/web/20030210114324/http://www.rendell.uk.co/gol/tm.htm  
(Version 1.4)

ASMEURER  Copy this into Script Editor and save as an Application:

do shell script "open /Applications/Dashboard.app/;open /Applications/Expose.app/;open /Applications/Expose.app/"

Then set it to open at login.   
(Version 2.4)

ASMEURER  Transmission is very good and clean, but it presently doesn't support rss.   
(Version 3.3.0.1)

ASMEURER  OK, I see what is meant now. Simple Synth should do the trick.   
(Version 1.0)

ASMEURER  Saying that a MIDI synthesizer is required is pointless. Every mac comes with a synthesizer because of Quicktime.   
(Version 1.0)

ASMEURER  What happens if you type just "reboot"? Also try, "shutdown -h now". if those commands have disappeared, you may need to do an archive and install.   
(Version 1.5)

ASMEURER  Use "reboot" instead of "restart."  
(Version 1.5)

ASMEURER  This is great. I have two suggestions. 1. Could you make things like two finger click, three finger click, two finger tap, etc., editable? I would like to make a three finger click enable Exposé. 2. Could you make it so actions emulate scrolling? For example, Google Earth zooms with scrolling, but I would like to make pinching do it too. So far, it is a godsend for Safari switching tabs instead of going back and forth in the history.   
(Version beta5)

ASMEURER  What number should I enter into the size in Megabytes if I want to burn to DVD?  
(Version 0.9b9)

ASMEURER  It's free.   
(Version 2.0)

ASMEURER  Until this is updated, fsck- fy will perform a file system consistency check in single user mode (the first test performed in AppleJack). Does anyone know how to manually run the other commands, especially the permissions repair or cache clearing ones?   
(Version 1.4.3)

ASMEURER  I also thought of another good feature idea. It would be nice if right-clicking on the previews would disable them so I don't have to go around them to do so. This way, I could have the delay time set to 0 seconds with no modifiers set without too much annoyance.

Also, I noticed that the version number is one behind, so it thinks there is an update all the time, but the feature set clearly matches up with the current version.   
(Version 1.1)

ASMEURER  I wish you could set a separate shortcut for the menu and dock rather than just disabling them altogether.   
(Version 1.1)

ASMEURER  Just turn on "warp mouse" and you will only jump one space.   
(Version 1.0)

ASMEURER  I you have the Terminal open all the time like I do, it is much easier to just type killall Dock whenever the Dock, Spaces, the Program Switcher, Exposé, and/or Dashboard (yes, these things are ALL part of the Dock) go bad on you. The problem it that it is often impossible to do anything when some of these things freeze. What is really needed is a keyboard shortcut to restart the Dock that will work even if, for example, you are stuck changing Spaces or in Exposé and you can't do anything with any window.   
(Version 1.0)

ASMEURER  The developer claims that he wants suggestions, so here are mine:

• Over all, this is a great concept and a great app. It also works pretty fast.

• Change the image icon in the toolbar. It is ambiguous; if I didn't already know what it was, I wouldn't have a clue.

• Out of curiosity, does this use Spotlight? If it does, why is there not find as you type? Either way, find as you type would be good.

• There needs to be some kind of icon indication in the search results bar if an item is an image.

• A way to filter out white images/images with not size would be nice. I thought it didn't work at first because I pulled up a blank image.

• The image search should use thumbnails, with the ability to sort them by size in case there are a bunch. Otherwise, you can only search for image names or urls, which usually aren't very descriptive.

• Source coloring or the ability to open it in another app would be nice. Also, if it could highlight the search occurrence in the source, that would be helpful.

• Just a list of domain names for searches. The stated purpose of this app is to find forgotten pages, and that would make it faster. Also, if domains could be unchecked from the search results, so I could eliminate the pages from domains that I know that I am not looking for.

• This program is pretty straight forward, but some documentation would be nice anyway. I'm not exactly sure why the folder option is there or what it does (for different browsers?).

• A little iphoto style calendar to help sort through dates would be neat.

• One last suggestion: the stated purpose of this program is to find forgotten pages that were previously visited, so maybe adding a history search would be applicable. But then, there are plenty of apps (including Safari) that already do that.

I hope these aren't too hard to implement, they are just ideas though.   
(Version 1.2b3)

ASMEURER  If you haven't quit Safari since losing the tabs, you can try making a copy of the Safari application in the Finder. This usually works for me: the Safari copy will open the tabs. It's also a good idea to back up your tabs with the save tabs option in the file menu every once in a while.

If all else fails, you can try searching for where Saft saves the tab info with easyfind. I think it is either in the user library folder or in with the saft bundle.  
(Version 9.0b4)

ASMEURER  2.0.8 works now.   
(Version 2.0.8)

ASMEURER  From email with developer:

"

Yes, but it is a little counterintuitive. You need to use "Join & Convert" and set your iTunes conversion settings to create Apple Lossless files."  
(Version 2.0.7)

ASMEURER  This doesn't work with the latest version of quicktime/itunes.   
(Version 2.0.7)

ASMEURER  Saft 9 has a bug where when I quit and reload my session, my left most tab is replaced with my right most tab. I don't like losing my left most tab every time I quit Safari.   
(Version 9.0b4)

ASMEURER  The new find function is great. I hope Leopard integrates that into every program.

I like the tab reordering, but there doesn't seem to be a way to move a window back into a tab unless you have tabs in both windows already (then you can drag tabs between windows), except for merge windows. Also there doesn't seem to be a way to move tabs that are in the tab menu (I have nearly 20 tabs open).   
(Version 3.0.2b)

ASMEURER  This is going to be a great app. It already works better than iComic and Comictastic in my opinion. Here are some things that I think it needs improvement on:

• Zoom buttons. I shouldn't have to use the menu bar or memorize shortcuts.

• DOCUMENTATION. Please. I have no idea how to add comics.

• Better interface for adding comics. The current one isn't bad, but the field names are confusing (tooltips maybe). Also, the program should be able to find a list of comics from the preloaded websites rather than having me type it in.

• A better color scheme interface and preference saving.

• The menu bar items disappears when the preferences window opens.

• Less hidden way to mark comics as unread. A button would work best.

• Automatic installation of summary files (see developer site for Calvin and Hobbes and Dilbert files). I think that Bound and Gagged should have a similar feature (text is searchable from their website. I don't know if this can be implemented in the same way).

• Scroll whell support for continuous mode.

• The ability to sort by date instead of comic, so I would see, for example, all of Yesterday's comics, then all of Today's comics instead of Yesterday then Today for Comic A, Yesterday then Today for Comic B, etc.

• King Features support. Or are those strips available through the other websites?

As far as the current program goes, I particularly like these features:

• Archiving with logical image saving in the Finder.

• The reflection is cool.

• I like the way that you can move the comic when you are zoomed in.

• Built-in comics and comic websites.

• The general interface. It makes reading comics one-by-one very nice.

I have one question. When it checks for updates, it says that new comic parameters are available. It click Download and it says that there are no updates. What does this mean? It doesn't seem to work (it does the same thing every time I check).   
(Version 0.05)

ASMEURER  Apparently this is no longer being developed. You should download this one: http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/20014  
(Version r45)

ASMEURER  Apparently, you can analyze any smart playlist by exporting it as an XML file. It needs the option to choose between total rating and average rating (currently it is only total). Another nice feature would be the listing of the most common words, instead of just the top one.   
(Version 1.6)

ASMEURER  The cat doesn't seem to work anymore.   
(Version 1.0)

ASMEURER  This needs an option to always reload artwork with a new song. I have songs in the same album with different artwork (multiple disk album) and I hve to reload the whole widget to get the artwork to change.   
(Version 1.4)

ASMEURER  Especially thanks for supporting disk images. When I lost pictures, I could only think to save the whole thing to a disk image.   
(Version 1.4.3)

ASMEURER  I am slightly confused. If I join Apple Lossless files using the lossless if possible feature, are the resulting files lossless?   
(Version 2.0.6)

ASMEURER  Please add a junk button.   
(Version 1.2b4)

ASMEURER  Would it be possible to make this for any user, not just root?   
(Version 1.0.2)

ASMEURER  This version doesn't seem to include the Dashboard widget.   
(Version 0.80)

ASMEURER  Thank you for getting rid of that ugly monkey.   
(Version 2.0.1)

ASMEURER  "Changed password algorithm to randomly choose between upper- and lower-case for the first letter"

How does this make a password better?  
(Version 2.4)

ASMEURER  Why is the maximum Mb 2100? That isn't very convenient for DVDs.   
(Version 1.0)

ASMEURER  I have one of these, and here is my advise:

Don't count on Que!, their website says that they are working with Apple, and has since Mac OS X 10.2, at least.

If you still have Toast 5 that came with the drive, update that to the Mac OS X version, or just buy the newest version of Toast.

X-CD-Roast works with it in panther, although the software itself is sporadic, so far I can't get it to work in Tiger, but it's worth a try.   
(Version 1.4)

ASMEURER  Does anyone know how to uninstall this?  
(Version 0.8.4)

ASMEURER  I don't understand why this can't just be an option in the widget.   
(Version 1.4)

ASMEURER  I would rather not have that size limit. Could you add an option to remove it.   
(Version 1.8)
