Product Description:
Mr. Tides displays tide and current information for a variety of locations around the world. It can display the day's tides, the week's tides, or the month's tides in two different ways. You select a station via the maps presented by Mr. Tides, or by searching the station list.
What's new in this version:
- The 'Find by distance' dialog uses the format specified for the location (e.g., Deg Min Sec) (2.5.4)
- "Show Datum" has been replaced by "Marker" and the datum is no longer visible, just the marker level. The datum feature wasn't useful, and was confusing a lot of people. (2.5.4)
- Marker times once again are printed. (2.5.4)
- Changing units now works correctly. The unit string (e.g., 'feet') will be properly shown when you change the units. (2.5.4)
- Searches that cross the International Date Line (+/- 180 degrees longitude) now returns results from both sides of the line. (2.5.4)
- The folder that Mr. Tides resides in has its name changed. The little funky 'f' symbol that I used to indicate it was a folder has been removed. I realized it was cute, but unnecessary. (2.5.4)
- Fixed a bug where the OS 9 build was trying to execute OS X code while rebuilding the index file, crash, and repeat. My mistake; I used the wrong conditional compilation setting. (2.5.4.1)
- Fixed the rebuild window on OS 9 so that it doesn't flicker like crazy while rebuilding the index, and also made the window smaller so it fits on the screen. This makes the rebuild process run faster on OS 9 too, as the screen redraw was using up a lot of time. (2.5.4.1)
- Fixed an issue where an exception occurred while opening a station, when the code should have returned a 'false' instead. This lead to a misleading "you have a problem" dialog, that clicking 'continue' would dismiss and the app would run fine. (2.5.4.1)
- Reordered the sequence of events so that the splash screen would open first, then if necessary the rebuilding dialogs would appear, then the maps and stations would open. This sequence makes much more sense. (2.5.4.1)
- Fixed a bug where the rebuild process was too aggressive at removing obsolete stations, and would remove reference stations that were being used by a substation (2.5.4.2)
- Fixed the sorting on the Map list (2.5.4.2)

Republic of Ireland not covered. It may be a great Tide Predictor for the rest of you guys but I put to sea from Ireland and we do not exist for Mr. Tides. Have a word with the British Admiralty. They are still giving out tidal information for Ireland for free on the internet.

I have been using Mr. Tides for sometime now, both the X and the 3 versions. I have checked the tide tables that it generates with the local tables and found they match. I recently wrote the author with a suggestion in regards to the calendar feature and he kindly added it to the program, thank you very much.
