Shomi - 2.0.3

Shomi is a package consisting of a Mac application and a Mac contextual menu manager plugin (or CMM plugin for short). It now also includes "Shomi Carbon", a version that works on Mac OS X. I still provide the non-Carbon 1.2.3 version to support people running old OS versions, possibly on 68K Macs.

The application version is a fast display program with as little interface as possible. Just drop things on Shomi, and it will show them to you. Drop several things and it can divide your screen into tiles and show them all at once. When you've seen enough, click the mouse, and Shomi will vanish again.

The CMM version is a handy little plugin which goes in the "Contextual Menu Items" folder in your System Folder. Just install it and then control-click files or groups of files in the Finder to get the contextual menu. It will display pictures, play movies, let you copy pictures to the clipboard, convert JPEGs to PICT files, show you extended file info, display picture info - it does a whole load of stuff. You get most of the cool things when you control click a single file rather than a group. The group thing is great for batch browsing images though.

Each version can work without the other - they are totally independent.

Currently there is no Carbon CMM version for Mac OS X - I need to investigate if these are still supported and if so how I need to rewrite
