  • Added auto retry on failure for transfers option in preferences
  • Added AppleScript Support (includes some preinstalled scripts)

This was the best Hotline client until 10.5 shot it to hell. Please fix this!

Heidrun CommentaryIt doesn't work on Leopard - Version: 0.7.2, 2/24/2008 04:45AM PST

Since I upgraded to OS 10.5, Heidrun fails to load the users list, and hangs forever... It's a pity, because it used to be the best Hotline client.

Does anyone know how to contact the developer, asking for workarounds or even if he can recompile this nice little program?

Thanks

... if you could view directory listings on servers by Date Modified/Created? Would it be hard to implement? Surely there are a bag of other features you could inject into Heidrun to justify the 4-year absence. Been using it since it was born and is still my choice in Hotline client clones.
