    Macaroni CommentarySnow Leopard compatibility - Version: 2.1.1, 10/29/2009 03:45PM PST

    NickCollingridge
    It's not made clear here in any way, which is a shame, but according to the developer's website: Snow Leopard Compatibility Today's release of Mac OS X 10.6, a.k.a. Snow Leopard, has brought many questions from people who want to know-- Does your software work on this new version of Mac OS X? The answer is, very simply, "yes". The current versions of all of my software work just fine on Snow Leopard. No updates are needed, so you can keep using the version you have.

    The tool is very good! Have your file permissions repaired once a week without any hassle!

    It also reveals a weekness of VersionTrackerPro - if you have installed Macaroni VersionTrackerPro does not recognise it, at least not with 10.4.11.

    Unobtrusive, set it up, and it just works. I have it installed on several Macs. I find it much easier to configure than *censored*tail, for example.
