Product Description:

Get the power of a command line without ever getting near it. Do all those things your system maintenance utilities try to do - but do them better and do them your own way. No typing - just 'clix'.

You have to perform maintenance routines. You know that. But make a mistake - especially in one of those glittery AppleScript apps - and what happens? You'll have no such fear with CLIX. CLIX is safer - and for the skilled professional safer than even Terminal. From almost every security standpoint.

CLIX: the Command Line Interface for OS X. Access to the full power of your operating system. Your computer runs smoother. You learn more, become better and more skilled at running it.

CLIX makes it easier for beginners to get up to speed with their new system. For the professional developer or system administrator it's an indispensable tool - a work of reference used by universities around the globe, NASA, the US military, and scientific institutions everywhere.

Despite all the work that's gone into CLIX over the years it's still free. Because it's all about knowledge. And knowledge - as most will agree - was meant to be free.

What's new in this version:

Fallback on native ASCII for command output. Responsiveness in CPU intensive operations.

A first-class utility that no serious Mac user should be without. No matter how handy you are with the terminal, you can't possibly remember every command that's available in Clix.

Kudos to Rixstep for continuing to maintain this invaluable piece of software - and keeping it free!

I downloaded from this link and "Get Info" on the standalone app shows version 2 with a creation date of 2/26/09 1:00.

So then I tried direct from the developer's site and got the same product.

VersionTracker Pro is confused too...keeps showing my 2.0 as being outdated.
