PHATCACTUS  Tool Chain alone is worth the $10, to make no mention of the other great new features and top-freakin'-notch tech support.

The devs don't get nearl enough credit for this app.

PHATCACTUS  I agree with Don. Editing font files is probably one of the most retarded things you can do.

PHATCACTUS  How strange. Just this afternoon I was trying to remember the app that provided OS 9-styl window switching, and here it is. Lovely.

PHATCACTUS  My mistake. It's not a beta. Well, no excuse then. :D

PHATCACTUS  Nice. I think I'll keep it around. It really needs to not show the menubar when an app starts, though, as it screws with window postions. And the delay before the bar shows is really long.

I know, it's a beta.

Also, why have your own prefpane when APE allows you to put everything there?

PHATCACTUS  When I launch, it says it's not compatible with my system version. I'm on 10.4.2. Grrr.

PHATCACTUS  It's an Applescript, so if you open it in Script Editor you can see what it does.

Basically it just renames the Search bundle with a dot in front of it. Or it should. I'm not sure why it doesn't.

PHATCACTUS  Is this project pretty much abandoned? That would be a shame. It's exactly what I've been looking for.

MACUPDATE ADMIN  Have you tried to contact the developer? The email address is on the developer's website.

PHATCACTUS  If Font Book were any good at all, then yeah, it's a lot like Font Book. But Font Book can't handle more than, like, twenty fonts at a time, and can't auto-activate them when they're needed.

And yes, having all your fonts activated slows down your computer.

PHATCACTUS  a) There is no reason not to know about bugmenot.com. There's even a slick lil' bookmarklet for it. Tell your friends.

b) I've never gotten any spam since registering with Macromedia.

I must agree, though, info-for-download is a bummer.

Suitcase Fusion 2

***..

PHATCACTUS  I've managed to crash it twice in ten minutes of use. First, when trying to rename a set, it attempted to activate 1500+ fonts. No warning (as in FEX). No progress indicator (as in FEX). Just a locked-up program and Dock. Second time was a corrupt font, which FEX admittedly had trouble with too.

I'll run with it a few more days, but I sure don't plan on buying it when the trial is over.

PHATCACTUS  It's like Myspace, but with some thought put into it. And it's very, very empty.

Personally, I don't see the point.

PHATCACTUS  Nice work. It does what it needs to very well, and nothing more. I just wish I had some real use for it. :D

Path Finder

PHATCACTUS  Infinitely better than the Finder, but still quite disappointing. OS 9's Finder was the cat's ass. It seems like it wouldn't be too hard to add that kinda behavior to Path Finder. And why doesn't the green "+" auto-size the window? That's a no-brainer.

Are they serious?
