Product Description:
Silk enables the Quartz text rendering and smoothing introduced in Mac OS X 10.1.5 in all Carbon applications. This means antialiased text in Internet Explorer, Eudora, and many others. Why wait for developers to update their Carbon applications when you can get the silky smooth text everywhere, right now? With version 2.0, Silk can substitute one font with another in your applications, and change the theme font (the font used to display menus, window titles, and other interface elements).
What's new in this version:
- Silk now runs on Mac OS X 10.5.
- Dropped Mac OS X 10.3 support. Silk now requires Mac OS X 10.4.11 or later.
- No longer dynamically loads Objective-C.
- Moved a lot of code to the awesomely awesome CoreText APIs (10.5 only).
- Adjusted some code so it can be moved to CoreText in the future.
- Attempted to make Cocoa applications respect the baseline of a font when a custom theme font is used.
- Note: Classic is not supported in Mac OS X 10.5 and the fonts in the Classic fonts folder will not be loaded by Mac OS X. You may have to adjust your Silk settings to address any missing fonts.
- Updated to APE 2.5, UI 3.7.1, and SCR 1.5

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:
- Mac OS X 10.5 Intel

<b>Unsanity has chosen to jump ship, and leave their loyal customer base screwed. DO NOT waste your money donating or buying a license as all you will be doing is throwing your money away. I deleted all my Unsanity haxies. Never again with Unsanity.</b>

For those who believe that Unsanity does not respond to inquiries, I suggest that you read the announcement in the yellow box at the top of their blog page that has existed for months now:

I own FontCard, FruitMenu, Menu Master, and WindowShade. All of their betas have worked well with Leopard on multiple Mac's.
